No Privacy for AIM users

Anyone who downloads the free AIM messenger on or after Feb. 5, 2004 has given permission for AOL to distribute the content to anyone they want to and republish the content if they so desire. Your content can be shared with any of their affiliates, competitors, or affiliates. They say:

"You waive any right to privacy. You waive any right to inspect or approve uses of the content or to be compensated for any such uses," according to the AIM terms-of-service.

If you use AIM, it might be a good idea to find another instant messenger.
