Yahoo! Sanjati ads

This company advertised on your home page. I ordered from them and they did a bait & switch. I ordered a fleece lined jacket and received an unlined plastic jacket. Even though their website says that the consumer will not have to pay return shipping if they receive the wrong item, they want me to pay that. I think they do this knowing that people don't want to pay so much to ship back to China. This company falsely advertises and then counts on people not wanting to pay to ship back. I have received a refund from PayPal but I think that yahoo should not allow companies like this to advertise on their homepage.

Desired outcome: Don’t let Sanjati advertise with yahoo they are a scam

Yahoo! Yahoo allowing scam companies to advertise.

Products like the 4 "stain glass" birds for mothers day were actually a painted piece of plastic. They even had video showing the stain glass process. Being a china company, it's hard to communicate & get a refund. I think this difficulty to resolve is by design to make the customer give up on a return.
Yahoo should not allow these scamers to advertise & support customers in getting refunds.
There are a number of items i'm interested in ordering, but now i'm afraid to because of the Yahoo scammers.

Lynn Overton

Desired outcome: refund & better screening of advertisers.

Yahoo! Home page

Home page is very liberal. Specifically promoting black folks and ignoring other ethnic groups such as asians, latins, caucasians and more. Always promoting news and sports from chicago. Why? There are other more important news, events rather than focusing on african american issues. We are in no way racist but yahoo is taking it to extreme. I can assure you many folks agree with us.

Yahoo! Comment censorship.

Who elected Yahoo to be the censor of free speech? The auditing on story comments by a board of [censored]s is a direct confrontation to the freedom of speech. Any comment these bleeding heart liberals find truthful or disrespectful are not permitted. Any socialist comment is approved unequivocally. As far as I am concerned, Yahoo can kiss my conservative butt.

I think the tech companies like yahoo and twitter should have their rights taken away (section 230)and be sued for the false crap they promote.
Just look at the home page of Yahoo. It is filled with junk about actors or actress bodies in bathing suit, stupid stuff that is not worthy of news that only ignorant people would read. It is no wonder this country is going to hell.
Tech companies sensor American citizens freedom of speech yet they allow dictators to promote hate and killings of others.
Tech companies will support China but not their own president, trump... They will support the killings in China and Iran, but not allow americans to say what they feel. They support BLM, and rioting and burning of stores that people have worked their whole life to build while thes scumbags steal and ruin peoples lives.
IT IS TIME AMERICANS STAND UP AND DENOUNCE THESE TECH COMPANIES FOR WHAT THEY REALLY ARE, COMMUNIST LIBERALS THAT WANT TO DESTROY THIS GREAT COUNTRY.

Yahoo! Your extreme left article agenda!

Will you please present articles and comments that support both republican and democratic views? I assume all writers took an oath to report true and unbiased news and your web site has completely ignored this philosophy! Americans expect and deserve honest and unbiased news! You had no problem showing complete lies about republican issues while running total lies about anything associated with the democrat's agenda! Shame on you and anyone who you allow to report or run articles for you! If you can't provide equal and responsible stories than shut down your site!

Desired outcome: You can reply to me at [protected]@yahoo.com.

Yahoo! Your ads

Every time I go on Amazon to look at something, this very item appears in my Yahoo email. I think this is called invasion of privacy. What if I don't want someone in my household to see what I am looking at. My husband's birthday is coming up and I don't want him to see what I am looking to buy him. This is very irritating. Stop the personal ads appearing in my email page.

I'm tired of clearing Yahoo's COVID updates from my phone. That lie is long gone. What I would like is an update on how many people have died and gone to the emergency rooms after their shots. Of course when I find a video about how over 5 thousand people have died, conservatively, YouTube takes it down. Just like they took down the "VIRUS came China" vids 6 months ago. If it doesn't fit "their" narrative its taken down. We can't even talk about it... so much for FREE SPEECH.

Desired outcome: Stop updating the lie.

Yahoo! Comments

I am truly sick of the lie that you are trying to "create a safe and engaging place". For the past eleven (11) months all you have done is propagandize your point of view without allowing any other point of view. If the people who read the comments cannot do so without crying, perhaps they should not engage in discourse with adults. Perhaps YOU should quit trying to determine how and what others should say.

Desired outcome: Knock off the lies and allow others to speak.

Conservatives have a special purgatory for uppity black women who dare question America's founding myths."
As a conservative, I find that blanket statement deeply offensive. that is certainly NOT my opinion, why are opinion writers allowed to spew hatred like that on your platform while the public is banned from responding?
some organization you have going there.

I need to remind you Kelly that you chose to engage me in this public email (I didn't know your email address) with some rather bizarre comments regarding where I work and accusations about beer consumption which as a very committed recovering alcoholic I found extremely offensive if not slanderous. I'm sorry that literacy is not your strong suit but the messages you've sent have been very hard to decipher but if you believe an apology was in there one of us is delusional and it isn't me. In closing my advice to you is quit while you're behind. But I had better not find out that you have been sharing your lies about alcohol consumption or legal action may be in the future. Have a good night!

I am sick and tired of telling Yahoo to stop showing me certain publishers on your home page every time I open my internet to Yahoo.com. I tell you to stop using the steps you outline in your instructions and you just increase the number of articles that come to me from that publisher. The publishers are Sports Wire and Sports Edge locations I am not interested in since they are not in my area. Also, you keep sending me Vouge a a publisher and Tenn Vouge. I am a male and not interested in these. In addition you send me articles on NASCAR and I am not interested in those as well. Either stop or I am going to move to another vendor!

Yahoo! News

the news that I continue to see on my Yahoo page, is for one, not factual at all. Your continue push of the false claims of Trump. You WERE better than that. I've surfed silently for quite a while. I will no longer. If this cant be addressed, at least for my account, I and the rest of my family and employees will delete this application, and will have it blocked from my business and its cpu's. Yahoo has always been better than this. Why the aggressive media tactics now?

Desired outcome: No more pushing of conspiracy lies. quit giving him a podium to spread such lies. this is where your responsibility lies. I await your reply. If respected with one.

Yahoo! Yahoo Mail

One of your users continually sends me abusive and racist emails. I have repeatedly asked him to stop and he will not.

His name is John Haggard and the email he uses is [protected]@yahoo.com

I have included an excerpt from one of his recent emails so you can see the kind of garbage he continually sends me:

The experiment has failed. Not because of white culture, or white privilege, or white racism. The fundamental problem is that American black culture has evolved into an un-fixable and crime ridden mess. They do not want to change their culture or society, and expect others to tolerate their violence and amoral behavior. They have become socially incompatible with other races by their own design, not because of the racism of others - but by their own hatred of non-blacks.

Our leaders don't seem to understand just how tired their white subjects are with this experiment. They don't understand that white people aren't out to get black people; they are just exhausted with them. They are exhausted by the social pathologies, the violence, the endless complaints, and the blind racial solidarity, the bottomless pit of grievances, the excuses, and the reflexive animosity. The elites explain everything with racism, and refuse to believe that white frustration could soon reach the boiling point."

Desired outcome: I believe you should revoke his privilege to use your software to spread hate and racism.

Every day is an article OR TWO about the kardashian women and men changed into women.
Today is a picture of a naked woman nursing her baby while standing on her head.
Your homepage is almost porno. No news about the US or the world, it is only entertainment news about celebrities and I just don't care to see another famous person in their thong, on their boat, or on their boat in their thong.
