While logged in: Y! News article COMMENTS prompt login in an endless loop. 'login' & 'sign up' appear at the top, while attempts to write a comment or even reply to a comment have 'sign up to post' button in place of 'post'. Multiple browsers on multiple devices - all cache cleared, all restarted, ALL Y! account settings reviewed thoroughly: to no avail. Useless Ai bot was, well, useless, per always. Any pathway through support/contact lead to 'unavailable at this time' [midday on a non-holiday in the US]. No private feedback even exists to notify you of a you problem. The single change I can identify is seeing, for the first time: Minnesota Privacy Act info. After all basic troubleshooting, multiple devices, different OS, different browsers all generating the same result: my best hypothesis is some new dysfunction relevant to that. Again, went through all Y! settings in every category - nothing about enabling or disabling comments. If you've somehow concluded Y! News article comments isn't compatible with the Minnesota Privacy Act: would sure be nice to notify customers of that. Already wasted too much time on an issue that isn't mine to fix - hopefully this is sufficient for it to be resolved.

Why I could not open reader comments to your articles? Any incorrect settings on my PC? Thanks for your advice.

I have been with Yahoo for over 15 years and use the news articles daily. Over the last five years there has been a dramatic shift in a political bias on your website which tries to hinder or suppress comments who have conservative views or differing opinions from Democrats/liberals, marking their comments as against your policies, when other posters with the same exact comments, do not have the same rules. My account was currently banned for God knows what and I am no longer able to sign into comments, which I think is absolutely ridiculous on your part. At one point you had commenting turned off for all your articles. If you can’t accept views from both sides, you should turn comments off.

Your website (check Reddit threads on this) often instructs people who are already logged in to log in or create an account. Fix this bug. I can always go to MSN.com for the same basic thing: news aggregation. You have nothing special, so fix this bug.

Yahoo, comments will not allow me to log in even after multiple tries and jioning community just sends me to the news sponors site which I do not want

your comment section is ******* trash - its 50/50 whether it ******* works or not - you are literally the icecream machine of mcdonalds. how the **** are you guys still in business when your **** doesnt ever work? (mcdonalds a least is known for its burgers)

Your comments section has all sorts of problems. Periodically, I keep getting kicked out to login time and again (like today). You must be having problems because it crawls while trying to load comments. And, if anyone replies to a comment I made, clicking on the link in the bell icon only takes you to the story. If there are hundreds of comments since mine, good luck finding the comment replying to me. My idea, add a button in sort for “poster” that will take me to my comments in the story.

So how about correcting it. OR, if somehow I am being banned from commenting, let me know via email rather than pulling this **** and wasting my time. Right now I am giving you the benefit of the doubt that it is mere incompetence today that I cannot log in or sign up to read my past comment responses, issue thumbs up or down, or make new comments.

POSTING see above

When trying a click like or reply to comments on any yahoo news aricles I have to always keep signing in and then it only works occasionally to allow any comments to be entered. What is the deal here!?!?!

I Understand the need for some censorship on certain threads, but it's getting out of hand at this point. Anything that is not PRO-Trump get rejected, even if it is stated straight up and honestly. This OVER censorship of the public's comments is totally wrong. Please STOP it ASAP! Thanks

I have posted comments on an article now about a dozen times trying to find something that wouldn't be rejected. My most recent comment was "I agree with the companies involved." I can't understand how saying you agree with something in an article could POSSIBLY be in "violation of community standards." It seems to me that some other reasoning is behind rejected every comment I make. Someone needs to evaluate the criteria used for determining violations.

When I respond to an article you post I use nothing but the facts. I do not threaten anyone, nor do I use vile language or use cuss words. Yet you continue to reject my responses without a reason to do so. There is absolutely no reason my response to the Hill today was not acceptable. Please, tell me exactly what I said that was so offensive that it couldn't be published so I can avoid any such references in the future. I know I am speaking to the wind because you never respond to my inquiries.

Why was this rejected when it is Fact.It is from Sky news and other outlets.

All seven were handed an OLR and placed on the sex offenders' register indefinitely when they appeared back in the dock on Monday.
Chinese social media gives reasons and also a chance to edit a comment. Seems Yahoo does not like facts to be given.
Owens was sentenced to a minimum of 20 years behind bars; Lannery 17 years; Williams 14 years; Brannan 15 years; Forbes eight years; Watson nine-and-a-half years; and Clark 10 years.

If ever paroled from jail following the "punishment part" of their sentence, they will be subject to risk management for the rest of their life.

If they go on to commit another crime once released back into the community, they will face being recalled back to prison.

The comment widget works like ****, it wont even ooen in many browsers and i couldnt even send feedback to openweb because it crashes the browser, ****, even their support page doesnt work! Please change it to a better one, a one that works.

This is in regards to the article, LAWMAKERS REACT TO GOVERNER PRITZKER'S LINE IN THE SAND FOR TRUMP ADMINISTRATION posted on Nov 22, 2024.
I made a comment that was followed up by an individual that I would like to reply to, However, the commenting section has ended with a mere 1.5k comments. I have read countless articles that have had 2.5k comments. Therefore, I would like an explanation as to why this comment section has been turned off?

What are you pulling taking the comments section away?

Put the comments section back What's are you doing?

I am not sure what is happening but i have an idea that yahoo is stopping people from making comments. The newest message I am seeing is ... I have tried to comment on a couple of stories and I all I get is "Your Comment Failed to publish .. Retry"
I have addressed this before. I believe that if you are going to "censor" someone you should let them know. Allowing people to "report" or an AI that is reading and making decisions what can and can't be published is some wht a violation of the first amendment. While I understand you need to have some control strangling the commenter is not the way. I have had comments refused to allow it in the comments. I said nothing more then what the article said.
AI control is scary, but what is more scary is seeing a message that says the comment needs to be read by a human.
If you are going to deny someone from making a comment then you need to explain why not just say that it goes against policy since those "Community Guidelines" can be read and taken different ways
I suspect that I have once again been silenced and would appreciate to know why and how long I have to stand in the corner with a dunce cap on.
