If people complain, tell them that there is no other
way to stop AOL users from damaging the system, and
that AOL itself does not care.
I say we might get some advertizing that way.

While I'm sure the thought is tempting, isn't it a bit
counter to wikipedia's stated goals of openness to
block *all* of AOL? I can't imagine how it would
result in generally *good* press. Also, I think it's
bad protocol to break the web (which kind of relies on
linking from one place to another).
As an aside, AOL is already blocking all links from
Livejournal.com (not just images):
