Yahoo "Loses" $2.7B In Mysterious Mexican Yellow Pages Lawsuit

An anonymous reader writes "CNN reports that a Mexico City court has ordered Yahoo to pay $2.7 billion to Worldwide Directories and Ideas Interactivas. The classified directory publisher sued Yahoo, claiming various losses and breaches involving 'contracts related to a yellow pages listings service.' Yahoo announced its intention to appeal but is saying little else about the case."

it is ignorant to do business in mexico

[FudRucker]

mexico is one of the most criminal states in the world, the US Govt and mainstream media blather on about terrorists half-way around the world in the middle-east yet ignore the drug smuggling terrorists just south of the border, and yes some of it has spilled over to the USA's side of the border

I think i know why marijuana and other drugs continues to be illegal is because the government covertly does a lot of this smuggling for profits, and it helps the police state with lots of drug money and properties confiscated, and the private prison system gets all that cheap labor too
