I use Yahoo email for some purposes (and GMail for some other purposes), and I just got an email from Yahoo about "Important update to our Terms of Service & Privacy Policy". I tried to understand the changes (which involved plowing through pages of legalese on several web pages). One thing I noticed was that there was very little specifically addressing Yahoo Mail. There were some brief mentions that would apply if I lived in South America (or other non-US regions), but almost nothing for US users.
What I did read made me think that I really need to look into replacing my webmail provider by something else, like ProtonMail. Unfortunately, changing would require getting a lot of family members (who are less tech savvy than I am) to switch my email address from one they've been sending email to for decades.
- staticautomatic 9y agoI sympathize, but is it really that big a deal to switch email addresses? If you changed mailing addresses then your family would have to send snail mail to the new one.
