According to ZDNet, two AOL employees have been fired, and its chief technology officer is resigning, after the release of Web search data from thousands of AOL members prompted widespread criticism of the company. This leaked customer data was posted online.

How can these employees be so thick? Of course they'd get fired for this.

    You know, I have been a member of AOL since 1995 and I love all it offers its users and all my family and friends use their service. This is also where my role-playing community plays but when things like this happens it frost me, some of their employees (a few I knew personally and know how to conduct themselves) take their position there for granted and believe they can do what they want and not have to answer to anyone about it. I agree they should be fired and never be allowed to work for any on line services.

    And another thing! As much as I enjoy my time on AOL, their search engine SUCKSSSSSSSSSSSSS! :nerner:

    LOL. That's really sad for the employers, but you know what? they deserve it.

    I honestly can't stand AOL, really bad service, and when you talk to them on the phone; they never want to take "no" for an answer.
