I’m really surprised Yahoo is #7, I thought Yahoo was all but dead.

Think of all the grandparents that have Win Vista / XP machines with IE defaulted to Yahoo.

Also, all the spyware/malware/adware seems to be wrappers around a Yahoo search for some reason.

I've had my secondary email accts on yahoo for over 20 years, but am moving all the attached accts to another service.

The moment Verizon bought them they immediately started spamming targeted ads based on the content of my email - so long, and thanks for all the fish yahoo!

Yeah, this is very surprising. Even more surprising is how high Github and Stack Overflow are.
