Back in July while reading morning news, I came across this fact below:
"Microsoft had offered to buy Yahoo for US$44.6 billion in 2008. Yahoo rejected the offer. In 2016, it sold for just US$4.8 billion."
Later the same day, I see this on the news:

Later the same day, I see this on the news:
CNN breaking news: it was the russians (confirmed by 34 intelligence agencies)
Oh boy, I miss the days. (Altavista was and still is my favorite)
I am getting old.
I am getting old.
Glory days!
I remember the battles trying to get my sites listed in yahoo. It was where you needed to be. The amount of traffic you'd start getting once listed in the yahoo index proper was such a thrill.
Do you think they would ever admit it? The GOOG is now a defacto government agency.
why is Marissa Mayer still at her post? what a disgrace
Now that's funny. Thanks for the laugh.The hackers not only wanted to interfere with Yahoo Mail, they were trying to help Hotmail to win.
Marissa Mayer will be Tim Cook's replacement.
Her first order of business would be to fire all male employees, hire more females. Then the company slowly dies
Gmail is good. I usually use iCloud for personal stuff and Gmail for business and account related stuff. My Yahoo account used to be a spare but it has to GO.God damn it. I knew I should've switched long time ago.
As someone with at least 3 active yahoo accounts, am a complete idiot.
Can someone please recommend a better alternative?
Am opening Gmail accounts as we speak!
It's not about "anymore".
It's if you ever even *had* an account your info was on their servers and now in "others" hands.
