        Upon further examination I see quite a bit of familiar site names with scarlet lettering

            Kinda just makes you look at the red ones first... Also makes the page hard to read.

                seems sort of borderline policing the net. this isn't good, if large companies do this type of thing, start making "internet laws" so to speak and controlling everything online. Needs to be balance of power

                    You have a point..makes me worry because some assholes been sending tons of spam out and spoofing my email address for several months. I would guess that Yahoo must have signed up to these programs first to make sure.

                            Hmmm, weird, it only puts focus on them if anything to click more to be honest.

                                Can you just e-mail them for us and politely ask them to cease and desist?

                                          Nah, it's not what you think :

                                          Originally posted by Powered by McAfee
                                          After entering our e-mail address on this site, we received 1.4 e-mails per week. They were very spammy.
                                          Basically, the way to get listed is by allowing people to put their email in, and then sending them emails they don't like.

                                          It's not policing the net and all that, is actually doing all serious/quality email marketeers a favour, by driving out the sort of muppets that just collect and spam emails.

                                          It's certainly not easy to be joe-jabbed, seeing how the jabber'd have to have access to forms on your website.

                                          If newsletter quality overall improves that won't be a bad thing.

                                            Where they generate that information from?

                                            SPEWS? Or is it people that spam the Yahoo User base with UBE?

                                            Nice move by Yahoo though.
