Wow, so many different news about the same tech company within a month and now this one too. They could not have pulled a better stunt to compete with what Apple and Google is doing in their keynote. http://gizmodo.com/7-of-yahoos-biggest-fuck-ups-1745729341 http://gizmodo.com/7-of-yahoos-biggest-fuck-ups-1745729341 http://gizmodo.com/how-yahoo-totally-blew-it-on-security-1787177844 http://gizmodo.com/how-yahoo-totally-blew-it-on-security-178... http://gizmodo.com/heres-what-happened-to-all-of-marissa-mayers-yahoo-acqu-1781980352 http://gizmodo.com/heres-what-happened-to-all-of-marissa-may... http://gizmodo.com/yahoo-secretly-scanned-users-emails-for-the-nsa-and-fbi-1787401845 http://gizmodo.com/yahoo-secretly-scanned-users-emails-for-t... http://gizmodo.com/state-sponsored-hackers-stole-personal-information-from-1786958663 http://gizmodo.com/state-sponsored-hackers-stole-personal-in... http://gizmodo.com/sad-yahoo-sale-confirms-that-marissa-mayer-failed-1784155301 http://gizmodo.com/sad-yahoo-sale-confirms-that-marissa-maye... http://gizmodo.com/the-internet-is-targeting-yahoo-for-fostering-an-illega-1755162398 http://gizmodo.com/the-internet-is-targeting-yahoo-for-foste... I almost felt sorry for them when I read articles like that it's the saddest deal in history as they could got more much money earlier. Now, I feel good that they are gone. fuff .. gone ..

You have to wonder if there is some sort of campaign to smear yahoo? The timing does seem strange, but perhaps it's simply because they are under so much scrutiny because of the eventual sale?

  Yahoo and Twitter have been getting torn apart the past few weeks, coincidentally when they are selling. Probably a little bit of column A and column B.

  Possibly an effort to reduce the price.

  I have these speculations: 1. Tech giants are making room for themselves. 2. Their employees (male ones especially) are unhappy with deal, so they are attacking it. 3. Verizon is doing this to get discount. 4. CEO does not care about hiding lies anymore, she wants to be fired to get her money and may be she has lost control over her employees. 5. (highly improbable) They want users to delete their accounts due this kind of bad press.
