The stock price is a paper loss, it means nothing if Yahoo is acquired for the full purchase price Verizon asked for. So it remains to be seen if there's any meaningful punishment by the market for these kinds of breaches. Even if 6.5% stands, it's basically saying the per user value/cost of the breach is about a quarter (as in the coin).
- dmurray 10y agoThe article is about Verizon threatening to pull out of the deal, or use the breach as leverage to secure a lower price. The market thinks that may happen, hence the fall in price. Even if Verizon end up paying the full price, the fact that investors really worried that they wouldn't is enough to share future companies.
