Hi Dave,

Your readers might want to know that the Verizon/Oath TOS replace the
Yahoo TOS on 25 May.
https://policies.oath.com/us/en/oath/terms/otos/index.html

People can delete their accounts here:
https://login.yahoo.com/account/delete-user
https://edit.yahoo.com/config/delete_user

Based on Verizon's customer satisfaction rates, I suspect most of us
have a strong opinion on the matter. You can find discussions on the
implications to privacy and customer service anywhere you look online,
including:
