Good point. I assumed it was a direct development in the other day's story re: the largest hacking to date for YHOO.

  It was linked in the comments thread of that story, probbly why it was re-submitted. Personally, I missed this story when it was first posted, but regardless reposting now definitely adds an interesting additional perspective to the recent announcement, especially as we all wait for more information to be released about how the hack was executed and what the broader implications are. Combined the two stories are more insightful than seperate IMO.

    They are unrelated. The hack is from 2013. The malware scanner modification happened in 2015. http://mobile.nytimes.com/2016/10/06/technology/yahoo-email-tech-companies-government-investigations.html http://mobile.nytimes.com/2016/10/06/technology/yahoo-email-...
