    Don't release new technology until it's been vetted by your audience! Your site has been messed up ever since you jumped on the Ai Wagon, and it's obvious to all that your wagon is on the wrong path with broken wheels!! You have no right to vet my mail and tell me what it says. That is clearly a privacy violation! I have no Ad Blocker since switching to the Google Browser, also, intrusive, and this is clearly a shove to buy your premium service. Shame on you! To quote a recent AD, "Have you recently been electrocuted??"

    The problem with allowing Yahoo (or any "server" site") to indiscriminately allow ads is that bad actors inject malware that way. And that Yahoo, or Youtube, or Excite (remember them?) disavows all responsibility for SERVING that malware (that they FORCED us to accept!). You. Don't. Take. Responsibility. When it is now in fact yours BECAUSE you forced us, the Users, to watch those **** ads! And even if you were WILLING to accept that legal responsibility, its impossible in practice because you, like everyone else out there, don't have (and claim to not have the budget for) a properly-staffed Customer Service Department anymore (that isn't an idiot AI!) -- hey, how about you pay the C-suite a little less, and capitalize your infrastructre instead? They'll still be rich as sin but you'll have a better product!

    I don't have an "ad blocker" per se, I am using NoScript under Firefox to selectively block outside/unknown websites. Which, yes, can include arbitary advertisers, but I can and do allow specific, TRUSTED advertisers through. Drive-by downloads have been a fact of internet life for decades now, and if you think that I (or anybody else!) should expose themselves to that kind of malware attacks, you've got another thing coming. This is how I've kept my pc's absolutely virus free throughout my decades-long www history browsing (I've been a Yahoo.com user since 2008!), and I sure as **** ain't giving it up now. I am MORTALLY OFFENDED by the fact that absolutely ZERO WARNING was given, ZERO OPPORTUNITY to OFFLOAD *MY* DATA, MY crucial emails and close my account BEFORE this went down -- and let me tell you, it's on the table now! I may unmask now, to grant you that data you crave, Yahoo, but BASK IN IT...that week's, or month's worth, of advertising data IS ALL YOU WILL EVER GET BEFORE I CLOSE THE ACCOUNT. Sometimes "FREE" is too high of a cost, when strings like this get attached!

    I ALSO DO NOT WANT A F__KING AI "HELPING" ME WITH MY MAIL (AND HELPING ITSELF TO MY DATA)!

    We do not have any on our browsers! You are not accepting any privacy rights. You need to be sued and shut down.

    don't have ad blocker, just trying to get my work done. All ready signed in and it tells me to sign in

    Old mail format stopped functioning so I am trying the 'new' mail again. Would be ok except for the annoying "remove ad blocker" message. I don't have an ad blocker. Don't want to pay for yahoo mail because it is a train wreck.

  • Anita Tseng commented  ·   ·  Report

    no ad blocker getting message to remove it and blocking access

  • Craig Harbison commented  ·   ·  Report

    Yahoo is ******* me off. Has worked great for me for many years but now wont let me check mail claiming I have an adblocker on when there is no adblocker.
    FIX IT!!!!!!!!!

    Ok I DON'T have an adblocker!!!! Never have had. Also didn't realize ad blockers aren't allowed. What is going on with Yahoo Mail????
    I'm just about ready to find another carrier.
