Well, even if slashdot readers were pissed and angrily deleted their accounts, the vast majority of users did nothing. (New York Times, blah blah) So much for the big popular revolt, I guess. Market away, Yahoo!" Sigh.

    You are truly out of touch with the public. Most people don't give a shit. Most people aren't this paranoid and anal retentive. Hell, I know everything that happened, and not only do I use Yahoo, but I haven't gotten around to changing my settings. Why? I have a life. You should look into getting one, too.
