[Fwd: [H_PBDFA] Yahoo's charges]

[Betty]

Advance apologies if this is off topic for some of these groups, and
more apologies for the massive cross-post.  Apparently, yahoo is about
to start charging for pop access to email, etc.  Below is a petition to
ask them to reconsider these charges and a link for you to follow if you
want to sign it.

In light of the recent announcement to begin charging
for POP access 
to Yahoo! email addresses, a petition has been put
together to 
protest the action.

Here is the full text of the petition followed by a
link where you 
can go to sign it:


We, the undersigned, are signing this petition to
protest the new 
Yahoo pricing structure in relation to several of the
services most 
popular features such as Yahoo Groups, Yahoo Mail, and
GeoCities. 
While we agree and understand that it is the primary
goal of any 
company, including Yahoo, to expand their services and
to make money, 
we feel that Yahoo is deliberately targeting users who
have no choice 
or option in using Yahoo services. Yahoo Clubs, Yahoo
Groups, Yahoo 
Mail, and GeoCities are all services that, once signed
up for and 
established, are very difficult and extremely
inconvenient to migrate 
from Yahoo to another service. We believe that Yahoo
is deliberately 
targeting these users in total disregard to our needs
and desires. 

We would like to strongly encourage the management of
Yahoo, Inc to 
reconsider their pricing structure for these services
and consider 
continuing the current structure of Yahoo as supported
primarily by 
advertising.
