Aolization Of The Internet

The process of "dumbing down" that's turning the Net into a cross between a family-friendly shopping mall and an endless tiring racial-supremacy rally.

Family-friendly? Parts of it, I suppose. Parts of the 'net have become a virtual RedLightDistrict?. While I generally support the right of folks who like such stuff to enjoy it in their own homes - and that includes online - the purveyors of online smut these days are more and more aggressive at delivering their wares to everyone's inboxes, including those of children and others who want nothing to do with it. -- ScottJohnson

Probably cannot blame AmericaOnline for this, though it sure would be nice to try. :)
