Until today, we hosted 15 sites with Yahoo. Out of nowhere Yahoo's Abuse department decided to down one of our sites for TOS violation. We had done nothing and we alone manage the site. Hack? Yahoo support has no phone access to the Abuse department. You can either email or fill out a form on the abuse site. 24 hours later the reply to my email said the 'TOS was violated - that's why we took down your site'. No kidding. No reason how or why. So I filled out the form. There is a field in the form which is labeled "Who are you reporting?". I wasn't reporting anyone - just my problem - but, after trying 3 times, I was not able to submit the form without filling in that field. I didn't want to put anyone else's Yahoo ID in so - unfortunately - I put in mine. Now all sites associated with that Yahoo ID are down. No email. No site. Nothing. We may not even be able to retrieve our files. It is very scary to realize that anyone can enter any ID and down multiple businesses. Goodbye Yahoo.
