    @alcidezx3 had my name as well (IvanVega1) but there were others. We never just had one. Was @DoctaSlick your AOL handle, Nikki? 🤔

    Geez @verizon I pay $330/month for 6 devices on a family plan, and I can only use my jetpack for approximately two weeks of normal internet usage, and then you slow me down to pre-AOL dial-up speeds. Just hate this. That's not fair at all.

    Please update your app. It’s AOL dial up type slow @ShopifySupport. It literally crashes every 3 commands. Also, it would behoove you to make it an option to be able to print labels/ packing slips in bulk as opposed to which day they’re purchased Printing shouldn’t be a hassle

    I don’t know why my internet is running so slow. I have the latest version of Netscape Navigator installed with AOL webcrawler as backup.

    @cooIcatz In an era of AOL dial up internet at best too so if you weren't scouring for info you had little reason to doubt it. Would never work today they bottled lightning there.

    I’m just waiting for Nelly’s shit to start making the aol startup sound.

    PortSwigger's Gareth Heyes demonstrated CSS/HTML sanitizer-bypass attacks against 6 major webmail providers at Black Hat USA 2026, letting content inside an email escape the message boundary and hit the trusted interface: - Outlook (+Firefox): label-jacking spoofs a Microsoft sign-in screen, captures the typed password - Gmail: image-set() bypass chained with prompt injection via Claude Cowork's Gmail connector to steal a Slack token - Yahoo/AOL: paste-race bug exposes a 12-character Medium login token - Fastmail: two CSS mutation bugs plus a UI-hijacking flaw, since fixed - Proton Mail: proxy bypass that leaked recipient IPs, patched on retest Public PoCs are still live. Guidance: isolate HTML email in sandboxed iframes, restrict CSS.

    @CNBC EM is so full of ****! Enough. Buying Tesla because no one is buying Tesla’s anymore. More Starlink satellites?? The only piece of the business that sort of makes money. People in the woods in Bucharest that are moving off AOL?

    @oelma__ 19, I never had an AOL address, but I bet I still have an AOL floppy somewhere, does that make it 20?

  • BonkDaCarnivore

    @johncardillo 1) No you didn't win, and the court records show it 2) Still not my name 3) Let's dig into your stupid claims even as they are. Your left screenshot, which I already went and pulled from the courts, shows the case was dismissed due to identity theft, NOT a judgement (see first attachment). Congratulations, John, you just committed defamation against that man. 4) Your second screenshot defeats itself. I've went ahead and marked it up for you (see 2nd attachment). You keep posting a WITHDRAWAL of an attempt. Now I know you don't know what that means since your FICO score is sub-500 and you can't buy a house, but that means it was withdrawn due to error. If you do a public records search, the bank in question stated that the note was sold between holding companies and the payments he was making weren't being properly applied to the new account, not that he wasn't paying. Meanwhile, there is nothing in the court history that says the judgement AOL got against you was dismissed or even satisfied. So you're lying. You're really bad at this. And oh, by the way, Johnny Boy, I'm gonna go ahead and forward all of this to him, cause now he has a rock solid defamation suit against you. And he's litigious AF. Enjoy, bitchboy, heh.

    Speaking of suing and losing, did you know that John Cardildo once sued AOL (yes, that AOL - remember he's a Boomer)? It must have been strange for him to be on the Plaintiff's side of the court. Anyhow, not only did he lose his lawsuit (he's never won in court period), but AOL countersued him and got a judgement for $90,547.95 against him. Hey Johnny Boy, did you ever pay your debts?
