Just curious, but why would you boycott Yahoo?

Because they have provided information on Chinese users that the
Chinese government has used to imprison people.

I don't know how much difference it makes, but please notice, it's
"Yahoo China" that is suppling information the Chinese government asks for.
More or less a "wholly owned subsidiary" of what WE know as Yahoo in
North America.
Presumably Yahoo U.S.A. is not in the chain. We're talkng China here,
not anyplace else.
That's as I see it. I welcome dissenting views...
