Hackers are much advanced and active nowadays. After giant Google it's Yahoo now or is it the reply from Google only?

pompombrum3729d ago

I'd say check to make sure the NSA weren't doing their weekly check however it says unauthorized access.

people use yahoo mail? that's so cute

gizmig3729d ago

Well, I don't know in which world you live. Many people do use yahoo mail till now too.

Crazay3729d ago

I live in one where a solid 90% of users use their personal emails via their ISP (which is never Yahoo) or Gmail.

gizmig3729d ago

Yes that is true but those 90% belong to only where you live. But there are many countries out there too buddy who uses yahoo or gmail.

Anyways this is what I have seen and believe. I personally have gmail and yahoo mail both as well as my personal emails from ISP. I am active on all of them.

Crazay3729d ago

EVen my friends in the US and the UK. None of them use Yahoo.

Goro3729d ago

It's in the top 3 most popular email services...

Speed-Racer3729d ago

Many people have Yahoo accounts, but like me, they use it as a spam email when they need to sign up for those spammy newsletters and what not so their real inboxes don't get flooded.

Crazay3729d ago

Well that's just it right? Noone ACTUALLY uses Yahoo mail for anything of any real importance... same with Hotmail.

I thought we were progressing away from this crap?

SunnyZ2173d ago (Edited 2173d ago )

Only stupid people buy phones on plans anyway, so this is right up their alley.
Buy CLEAN phone crapware-free for $500 now, or pay $3,000 for crapware-filled phone over 2 years...
Hmm hard decisions...
