Ad blocker is for my protection, not to deny you ad revenue
Until third-party ads stop being a significant source of malware, using an ad blocker is a smart, even necessary, protective measure. When you can assure me that it's not possible for a malicious ad to make its way into my browser via Yahoo or any ad network is uses, I'll be happy to add Yahoo to my whitelist.

I believe that people should not be forced to turn off their ad blockers. I paid for the ad blocker, I do not pay for yahoo. And continuously being hounded by Yahoo to turn it off is an invasion of my own privacy and choice for privacy. The ads are invasive, and my decision to have a peaceful browsing experience is my own choice, not Yahoo's.

Overall I have no problem with ads to help you except for the possibility of viruses and malware that can accompany them.
That said, the real problem I have is that the ads were severely disruptive to the use of your email site. Especially, S-L-O-W loading of the site and emails. I was ready to stop using Yahoo Mail when I learned of ad-blockers.
If you can configure the ads to be present without being so troublesome to the use of the app, I'll be happy to whitelist you. -

I've already turned my ad blocker off for Yahoo mail. But Yahoo keeps detecting it as on. I'm about ready to migrate all my subscriptions to my gmail account.

Your ads are why I installed an ad blocker. I've been struck by viruses, the mail page resizes itself repeatedly, and I can barely operate the email because clicking on things brings up pages when I was trying to check an email item. With your ads disabled, none of that happens. You need to screen your ads.

Fully agree. The only reason I go near Yahoo is for Flickr - now you've sold that off to Smugmug, why the **** are you still billing me?
And why do you expire my login all the time, meaning that I need to get my phone to get a passcode?
Pathetic.

The Ads Kill the performance of the page, which is why I installed the ad blocker

I saw an option to remove ads to the right, but it's the ads that pretend to be part of my inbox that are the biggest nuisance and possible malware.

I hate ads and have an ad blocker. I understand Yahoo has to make money, but I'd rather pay Yahoo than turn off my blocker. Can I?
