Re: Yahoo recommends you write down account information

["MR BABS" <mrbabs () gmail com>]

I did read them, and this again enforces my point, you guys are just trolls.
Nobody takes you guys seriously.
Provide me with a legitimate situation, in which a 'bad guy' has access to
physically printed out documents, and the mailbox of the user , where he
could not simply either install a keylogger, sniff the passwords off the
network, or get them from the system.
The truth is, yahoo uses this as a way to prevent annoyance. I'd suspect if
they DIDN'T ask for this information n3td3v would be on here claiming that
it was a DoS vulnerability or some comparable bullshit.

Anyways, great troll, but this is an old meme, so lets keep moving the
FDRUIN forward, shall we?
