in bright red text...haha..That's fucked up!

Is your site labeled?

http://search.yahoo.com/search?p=tee...&pstart=1&b=11

Dennis Rodman · 05-06-2008, 03:33 PM

Oooooh shnaps.... not fair unless they can prove it. Yes my sites are there, and i never sent an unsolicted email.

Big move for Yahoo. Not many marked however.

CyberClicks · 05-06-2008, 03:38 PM

I give it 30 days.... they remove the feature.. haha

NTSS · 05-06-2008, 03:40 PM

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

D Ghost · 05-06-2008, 03:42 PM

interesting....

Socks · 05-06-2008, 03:44 PM

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

kane · 05-06-2008, 03:46 PM

try this one the keywords are nude celeb
http://search.yahoo.com/search;_ylt=...t-368&ei=UTF-8

They say mr.skin, al4a and worldsex all send out unsolicited emails. interesting. I wonder where they get this info.

D Ghost · 05-06-2008, 03:46 PM

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.

Phoenix · 05-06-2008, 04:00 PM

countdown until all return to addresses point at yahoo..lol

budz · 05-06-2008, 04:00 PM

well they dont label the sites that chat spammed through them
rofl .. thats where they should've started

bdld · 05-06-2008, 04:41 PM

its their site they can do whatever they want.

WiredGuy · 05-06-2008, 04:43 PM

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?

Cash · 05-06-2008, 11:36 PM

Interesting new feature ... Is it manual made?

Barefootsies · 05-06-2008, 11:44 PM

Sweet justice.

mike-al · 05-07-2008, 12:00 AM

must be a 10 millions dollar contest... whoever is the first to sue wins!

Iron Fist · 05-07-2008, 12:55 AM

I wonder if they partner with McAfee SiteAdvisor for their information.

fluffygrrl · 05-07-2008, 01:43 AM

Nah, it's not what you think :

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.

AlienQ - BANNED FOR LIFE · 05-07-2008, 02:02 AM

Where they generate that information from?

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

Nice move by Yahoo though.
