Yahoo isn’t my favorite because there are a ton of adds. When I once tried to sign up for an email, it made me put in my phone number and said that it didn’t work.

***** ADS AVERYWHERE AND SPAM!!!!! December 2018: I search to transfer all my e-mails from yahoo to other e-mail, no possibility since yahoo update for RGPD European laws for privacy, yahoo don't respect users! November 2018: Ads bypass mobile and desktop adblockers, ads imitate mail, one ad after each mail, webmail freeze, lag, RAM hungry. No possibility to transfer mails to other mail address since may 2018. Yahoo lose a lot of users and decline. September 2018: DON'T USE YAHOO MAIL BOX, LEFT YAHOO AND GO TO COMPETITION! Lot of spams unblocked now, antispam sucks, no possibility to create filters to redirect directly to spam box. Illegal with european privacy protection despite European hard penal sanctions (Owned by Otah now), yahoo lost more and more users now!!!!!!!!! August 2017: Ads everywhere, difficult to block in e-mail box! Tracking. Ads disguised in classic e-mail!

You wiill only have problems with yahoo if you chose to have problems with yahoo. A earch engine has never been unsafe and infact it will never give you bad results unless you specifically search for those bad things.
Helpful
If you want good things then you will search for good things. I have been using yahoo for years as my main search engine and I have never regreted it. Everyone has their choice. It is safe for adults but not kids.

Yahoo is just a search engine tha leads you to other webpages in the massive world wide web. It is lie a bridge and a bridge cannot be dangerous to you unless you chopose the wrong direction on your own.

A search enigne is like a book with a lot of different chapters. Each of the chapters is rated and you therefore get to choose which chapters are suitable for you. fin you choose the wrong chapters then you will get hurt in your own.

Поисковик хороший, но часто отвлекает крупная новостная лента.

If you know what you want then you will not have any issues with yahoo. Yahoo has been there for decades and although it is not as popular as it used to be, it is stull functioning well.
Helpful
I recommend yahoo to the people that I meet because unlike google, yahoo actually respects your privacy. It may not be popular but you can still use it as a search engine.
Helpful
