As an app developer ..... this is exactly why they want to push Universal Apps .... that 30% cut (and $100 a year program fee).

And then evolved again to simply mean one thing is so much better then another.... it's OWNED.

Ugh. Here it goes again. Their only solution for users is "Change your password." How about you actually fix the problem and make the email accounts more secure, Yahoo? I can't even remember how many times I've changed my password because of hacking, but it's at least once a year. I'm cancelling my account today. I only use it for my trash email anyway.
