Inappropriate ad mining. An email search within my email immediately brought an ad for that product.
This goes too far. I accept the Yahoo ads as part of the agreement, and cannot upgrade. But today, for the first time in 15 years of having the account, when I tried an email search for purple flowers, as I was trying to find the email where I had put a name to the flowers growing in the back yard - instantaneously, an ad appeared to sell me purple flowrs. More problematic, it was called Shopping - as though I was in the Shopping segment, which I never use. This cannot be part of what I agreed to. What if I searched for mastectomy in my email?
