So my wife (for some reason) still uses Yahoo mail, and she called me today and asked me to remote into her system to see a message that she kept getting. It is from Yahoo, 'gently' asking her to whitelist the site, and if you don't you have to wait 15 seconds until you can close the pop-up. So besides the obvious (ditching Yahoo mail) is there any other way around this without buying their subscription? I figured that they have it set to detect adblocking add-ons/software, and considering that Verizon owns Yahoo now, they are not hurting for money, they just want to shove their stupid ads down the very few that still use the email.
