Description
The sound that defined the early days of the internet is about to go silent forever.
AOL is set to shut down its dial-up internet service, ending more than three decades of the iconic symphony of beeps, screeches and static that once signaled your gateway to the World Wide Web.
The company, once considered the pioneer of internet connectivity, issued a statement on its webpage announcing the end of the service by September 30, 2025.
