Question by : Poll: Did you know that Yahoo sells your email address, for spam, spying, and “security” purposes?

I am not attempting to influence people to quit “frequenting” this website.
I am simply curious as to how many people with a triple digit IQ know this obvious fact.
Also, for those that do not know, they can simply learn.

i’m super paranoid about stuff like that. i once got an email from ebay saying that my account had been reported as backing out of an auction. i called ebay and they said that the email was fraudulent and someone was trying to get my personal info from it. i would try to contact yahoo somehow and if there is no way to contact yahoo i would take the chance of NOT answering the email in any way. you can always create a new yahoo account if it gets deleted….much harder to recover from identity theft.
