AOL Will End Its Dial-Up Internet Service (Yes, It’s Still Operating)

AOL, once a pioneer in the internet industry, has announced that it will be shutting down its dial-up internet service on September 30th. This service, which was once the dominant way to access the internet, has become increasingly obsolete in the age of high-speed broadband and mobile connectivity.
