1. Fix capricious comment banning

   PLEASE FIX THIS !! I am a longtime loyal Yahoo user who does not deserve to be treated this way.
   On December 29th, per instructions from a Yahoo Help representative in Estonia, I filed a report, reproduced below, that for several months I have been blacklisted from commenting on Yahoo News stories. Although I have received no follow-up response from Yahoo, I have been hoping that the situation would have been resolved now by now; but today - January 1, 2026 - I made a two-word "Test comment" post that appeared to have been accepted.

   However, after only a few minutes had passed, I received the by-now familiar e-mail message that "Your comment on Yahoo has been rejected," saying "Your comment on 'Videos released in Epstein files raise fresh questions about jail footage' violates the community guidelines and has been rejected"

   PLEASE FIX THIS !! I am a longtime loyal Yahoo user who does not deserve to be treated this way!

   Here follows the text of my report from 12-29-25:

   Notify Yahoo News users of being banned from commenting, and how to resolve.

   Ladies and Gentlemen: I just now talked to a helpful Yahoo representative in Estonia, and he directed me to this site for resolution of my problem: For more than two months now I have been effectively blacklisted from making reader comments regarding Yahoo News articles. No matter how respectful, benign or "vanilla" my comment - such as "good point," for example - it appears to post, but then I soon receive an e-mail message saying that I have "violated community standards" and my comment has not been accepted.

   I have received no notice or explanation that I have effectively been banned from commenting, or how to go about resolving this ban, but it is quite apparent that this is indeed the case - even though I have always tried to be respectful and non-controversial in attempting - albeit unsuccessfully - to comment on various Yahoo News articles.

   Please tell me how to go about resolving this exasperating dilemma!

   Thank you and best regards, MarkT markt_a1b@yahoo.com

3. change your new page since it is mostly about President and government actios

   Go back to your previous opening page style. I have found that Google has a more blanced reporting of the news.

4. Stop flooding my news with FOX article just because I clicked on ONE FOX article.

   After I clicked on ONE FOX article over 25% of the article displayed on my news page started being FOX article. If I wanted to see that much FOX I would go to the FOX site.

7. Please Quit Putting Feeds to "The Daily Beast" and "Mediaite" on Your Main News Page

   Neither of these organizations have any claim to calling themselves "News" outlets. They are one-sided opinion pieces that belong on an opinions page. Please quit cheapening the "News" page by including these hacks on it. AP, Reuters, Wall Street Journal, Fortune, etc... are examples of reputable news organizations. It's really not that hard...

8. Remove the comments section on all of your news articles

   The comments section no longer provides any value to the news reports being served by the site. It has become just a place where people throw insults at each other and a platform for disinformation. It is filled with bots, trolls, and other agitators. It is no longer a platform for free thought.
   
   If you want people to have a place for comments, make a BBS Don't link it into the news reports. Try to compete with Reddit.

10. Comments section after each story is not working.

    Why is it that when I click on "comments" at the end of a story, it just disappears? The other day it said you couldn't load any comments. What's up? You don't want to hear what your readers are saying? Did Trump get to you, too?

14. Suspected Coordinated Troll and Bot Activity in Yahoo News Comments

    Hello Yahoo Team,

    I am writing to raise concerns about the integrity of the Yahoo comments section across news and political articles.

    I have a very strong impression, after reading the comments on the following article and many others, that a significant portion of the activity may be driven by coordinated, low-quality, or potentially inauthentic accounts:
    https://www.mediaite.com/media/news/trump-pocketed-at-least-1-4-billion-in-the-past-year-shocking-ny-times-editorial-reveals/

    Many comments appear repetitive, emotionally extreme, dismissive of factual reporting, and aligned in ways that suggest organized trolling or bot-like behavior rather than organic user discussion. This pattern significantly degrades meaningful discourse and undermines trust in the comments platform.

    I understand the privacy and legal challenges involved in publicly displaying user location. However, I encourage Yahoo to consider alternative transparency and moderation tools that other platforms and researchers have found effective, such as:

    Clear indicators for newly created accounts

    Stronger bot-detection and rate-limiting mechanisms

    Visibility into account authenticity signals (without exposing personal data)

    Enhanced moderation for coordinated or spam-like political activity

    These measures would help protect genuine users and improve the quality and credibility of discussion while respecting privacy and safety standards.

    Thank you for your time and for considering improvements that support healthy, authentic engagement on Yahoo.

    Sincerely,
    A concerned Yahoo user

16. Provide actual news stories -

    Might as well call this site "Buzz Feed Promotions" or "The Daily Beast Central" - these are not news organizations or even news articles on your "News" site. You can do better .... but I don't expect much to change.

20. LET PEOPLE ACTUALLY COMMENT WHEN THEY TRY TO AS ADVERTISED

    I was about to comment on a story about the exodus from California...I believe my first comment after 20 years of being a yahoo account member, as I was typing my first sentence...apparently I was stopped as commenting "HAD ENDED" after 335 comments. I have seen comments with tents of thousands of comments before. WHY WAS I STOPPED FROM COMMENTING? ACTUALLY YAHOO HAS GOTTEN SO BAD, SO UNUSEABLE I WILL BE LEAVING SOON! ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS! MAYBE YOU SHOULD ACTUALLY ALLOW PEOPLE TO COMMENT WHEN YOU ADVERTISE THAT THEY CAN,,,WHAT A NOVEL IDEA!
