You can't blame Yahoo as-in "they are technically and legally allowed to do that". But on the other hand, Yahoo is a falling behemoth that is trying to earn it

You can't blame Yahoo as-in "they are technically and legally allowed to do that".
But on the other hand, Yahoo is a falling behemoth that is trying to earn itself a new image; and doing such a stupid move can and will earn them the mark that they still "don't get it", and rightly so.
- somesay 13y agoI never talked about the legal part. Of course it is legal since their terms might likely allow this. I just don't see it that wrong like you do. I wonder, if there is an argumentation to really call them stupid. And I don't even think this is relevant referring to their image. As you said, this only affects people who aren't either informed about computer topics, don't know they had a Yahoo mail at all or who simply reregister their old mail address.
