The Internet is getting worse everyday, another reason NOT to use Yahoo services :(

It's extremely useful when failing companies declare themselves to be in need of being ignored completely. The problem and the solution get neatly delivered in a single tidy package. Efficient!
Yes true, but I don't think Yahoo are finished -- the regular masses have no clue as to the problems though. I just wish that Yahoo would not be such a problem, malvertising and password issues for many; so badly handled, such a nightmare. Unfortunately, many web services that are "free" are being bought via other means. And with the horrid mess that gives us extremely bloated websites, including all the analytics and advertising junk, well it's a joke. Had they acted better (not just Yahoo), then perhaps there would be no need for adblockers. There is most definitely a need for adblockers these days, the junk that they stop is quite significant. If everything is "pay for", then I can see more and more services shutting up shop. A.
