Hopefully Norton isn't blacklistsing WaPo or NYT: https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2018/12/12/verizon-takes-massive-billion-write-down-its-media-business/ https://www.nytimes.com/2021/05/02/business/verizon-yahoo-aol-sale.html The WaPo article is following up on the news in the link I sent earlier which was talking about how Verizon was pushing AOL and Yahoo! users to a single email system managed by a company they created called Oath. The WaPo followup, published 6 months after the link I sent, says Verizon is giving up on making any money on them. And, then, 2.5 years later, you have the NYT saying they are trying to dump AOL and Yahoo! completely. (Both of the above articles mention Oath, which is how I found them.) Sorry to go on about this. The talk about Yahoo! takes me back to a time before Wikipedia existed and one of the founders of Yahoo! was making a big donation to the University where I worked.
