Yahoo! is going belly up so not sure they can rely on search agreements for much longer. It's better if they have some direct small individual customers I think

- twblalock 10y agoI'm pretty sure Mozilla has a clause in the contract with Yahoo that covers this: http://www.recode.net/2016/7/7/12116296/marissa-mayer-deal-mozilla-yahoo-payment http://www.recode.net/2016/7/7/12116296/marissa-mayer-deal-m... "According to the change-of-control term, 9.1 in the agreement, Mozilla has the right to leave the partnership if — under its sole discretion and in a certain time period — it did not deem the new partner acceptable. And if it did that, even if it struck another search deal, Yahoo is still obligated to pay out annual revenue guarantees of $375 million."
- ddito 10y agoSo if Mozilla goes to another search engine, Yahoo still needs to pay them for nothing? How did Yahoo agree to this?
