Default Re: OT: AOL Claims Property on AIM Messages

I don't think it has anything to do with Homeland Security, they could have easily put in a clause for something like this. No it sounds like they want to own everything that goes through their network. How does this work for groups of developers, at many Fortune 500 companies, who use AOL IM to discuss or send code around while their working on a project. Or heck just about anything else.

This just sounds way too vague to hold up in court. What is content anyway, that's going to be the clause that hurts them.
