Yahoo recently released information on a breach that exposed over 1 billion accounts. You would be wise to change your password and update your security information.

You should be okay if you changed your password within the last four months.

But the breach was from 2013 ... “Yahoo said a 2013 hack compromised data from more than 1 billion users. “ https://www.yahoo.com/tech/1-billion-user-yahoo-breach-143800752.html

No, I don't have a yahoo account. I don't even know what that means.

What does that mean? My home page is google chrome. Except on an old laptop that won't work with anything other than Firefox.

I got a notice from them a few months ago and I changed my password then. Received another notice the other day about a breech. Seems to be happening regularly with them.

Yahoo will reward the CEO with something like $55 million when she leaves on top of the tens of millions she made while ruining Yahoo into the ground.

They news is almost all negative at the site. It is like Dead People magazine. Full of SWJ articles. Plus they cannot write a simple webpage that works. Their videos rarely seem to play correctly. The pages load slowly if you do not use ad blockers and such. A lousy website under her.
