The Yahoo Mail sign-in and sign-out procedures are now both officially worse than Google's. Congrats! You win!

How bad must it be for me to waste my time to write you this message? ...and keep in mind the 80/20 Pareto Principle... Only 20% of the people (me) actually bother to let you know that things are now worse than they were.

Go back to the way it was.

I do not need to click a "Next" button that serves absolutely no purpose.

When I sign out, I want to be signed out. I don't want to come back and see that you still remember that I had signed in yesterday.

Mean what you say, and do what you say: "sign out" means out. Not halfway out -- all the way out. "Out" is out. Not "leave me stranded on the threshold."

C'mon guys. Why even? If it ain't broke, don't fix it! If you try to fix something that ain't broke, you gonna break it! Look! You broke it! It's worse than it was. Sheesh... corporations... <smh> You just can't do anything with stupid, eh.
