Oath Inc. + Verizon = Yahoo and loose advertising practices


Time and again I am getting spam pop-ups from Yahoo advertisements while viewing the Yahoo news feed. 

I tried to contact them but I guess they know their shady business practices would only result in nasty emails from people like me who are fed up with their loose policing of advertisements that allow spam pop-ups to hijack their own content. 

I myself have never cared for Verizon and this is just one more reason I would never consider them for cell service. Now it looks like I am going to look for another news feed because I am sick of the BS.

I should also mention that six months ago I was having problems with Yahoo hijacking my Mac Mini's kernel causing it to crash. One time I left the computer for the night on a Yahoo page and it damn near melted down my Mac Mini as the malicious code in their advertisement ran the processor at full clock for over 12 hours! 

Something not right with Oath and I think people would be best to avoid it considering the fact they hide their contact info on both Yahoo and Oath. 

Just an FYI for people.

After sending a "strongly worded letter" to Oath / Yahoo they replied wanting to know what kind of browser I was using. Guess I'll play along, at least there are people there.
