What kind of garbage are you spewing!
An advertisement, saying, "a Grandma was beaten up outside a store in my teeny tiny town?!" You should be sued for faking that garbage!
I know how to use a computer! This ad can say any town it wants, based off of our I.P. addresses and it is completely, deplorable garbage!138th ranked -

Is there a reason you only market items for Amazon
I realize that Amazon is the largest retailer in the world. However, it would be great if you spread the love to other smaller retailers. Jeff Bezos is rich enough as it is. There's no reason to keep adding dollars to his personal wealth.

Toenail fungus ads
How much money are the toenail fungus people giving you? I turned off all my tracking and personalization settings and I'm still getting gross toenail advertisements every day--and these are the ones that don't have an X or an Ad Choices triangle. How do I stop those gross ads?

Allow users to flag a homepage ad as fraudulent
I was burned by an ad that popped up on my home page. It seemed legit, but also too-good-to-be-true. I ended up being scammed for $100 - even through I paid through Paypal. Paypal has no recourse.
The only way to stop these adds is to implement a feature whereby an ad can be flagged as fraudulent in real time - and let other Yahoo users view the fraud reports. It shouldn't be too difficult to implement a "REPORT AS FRAUD" link beside an ad, as well as a "VIEW FRAUD REPORTS" link if fraud has been reported.
Legitimate advertisers…

How do I get rid of the "In The Know" ad? It's awful!
This ad continually plays while I'm on Yahoo and I can't stand it. How can I make it disappear and never see it ever, ever, ever, again?

How about you stop letting all these spam sites sell on Yahoo. different site name same layout there are 3 on the site today 9/7/21
There are so many ripoff sites on yahoo. The sites have a different name but the layout is the same. They offer too good to be true prices and just take your money. There are 3 on the site now. Do you even review who sells on the site or do you not care and just take their money. This site has fallen from what it once was. SAD

Home page slows Firefox to a crawl
Doing anything on the home page slows Firefox to a crawl. Yesterday, it was so bad that I got repeated alerts from Firefox that said "something on this page is slowing Firefox."
This issue has gotten far worse over time, to the point now that Yahoo is just not usable for most tasks and hasn't been for a couple of months. And the issue is limited to Yahoo--every other site works just fine in Firefox.
If you're trying to drive people to pay for your "plus" service to bypass the extreme slowdown (which I suspect is caused by the--no exaggeration--hundreds…183rd ranked -
Stop advertising for Havesat, they are a FRAUD.
You don't receive that cool looking functional metal mode of one of several engines. What you get is a crudely formed resin block painted by a 3 year old. Complete FRAUD! I will never purchase anything from the YAHOO page again. You can't return it the address they give is incorrect. Even if it was correct UPS quoted me several hundred dollars to send back to China.

Audio ads that are hidden, forcing me to listen to them does one thing – pisses me off
Apparently, everyone's feedback hasn't knocked any sense into your heads yet. Hopefully, they keep letting you and your advertisers know that the audio ads SUCK. Not only do they play automatically but you hide them somewhere on the page. I either have to listen to the stupid ad or go find it to turn it off – both are distracting and annoying when all I want to do is read an article. Pissing people off isn't the way to sell shit. It's a well known fact, online advertising has an extremely low ROI because people HATE the ads and ignore…
77th rankedHi,
Our Engineering team is investigating this. In the future if this happens can you please update this ticket with more information including who the audio ad was for, where it was on the page, etc.

Please remove this new ad feature all over the front page ASAP!
The "new" full page ad really is distracting and annoying, please remove it and return the original Yahoo home page.
