Dumb and Dumber(er).....

This is incredible. How many more times do you suppose AOL can shoot themselves in the foot? It must be a ragged, bloody stump at this point.

Re: Dumb and Dumber(er).....

Why can't they shoot themselves in the heart already?

They're apparently in damage control mode now as they removed the data.
Update: Sometime around 7 pm PST on Sunday, the AOL site referred to below was taken down. The direct link to the data is still live. A cached copy of the page is here.

Further Update: Sometime after 7 pm the download link went down as well, but there is at least one mirror site. AOL is in damage control mode - the fact that they took the data down shows that someone there had the sense to realize how destructive this was, but it is also an admission of wrongdoing of sorts. Either way, the data is now out there for anyone that wants to use (or abuse) it.
Of course my work's stupid ISA server is screwing up again so most of the Internet for me is missing...

I would imagine they didnt give the government any problems when they just asked for it.
