Nope, it was 100% Yahoo idea. I think they wanted to impress the Shrub.

Re: Hello Yahoo !

Exactly what I said. Yahoo has been know for their own form of Censoring content. This isn't the first time and it won't be the last.

Re: Hello Yahoo !

Why is everyone jumping to the conclusion that Yahoo have removed Iran because of other stuff going on in the world? Why would they bother? It isnt going to stop people is it?

Did anyone think that it could just be a human error?

Either way, just email them and ask. Then the question will be answered.

Re: Hello Yahoo !

I cant call it human error ! Yahoo is not human they are many people there that control one of the largest web services in the world, so it cant be like that !
I am just saying that there are a lot of Iranians who are using Yahoo mail, messenger and I dont think it was a wise move !
Anyway its their site and they can whatever they do with it ! but i think web is going to bring all ppl in the world together without looking to their religious, countries and...

Re: Hello Yahoo !

By the way, there isnt a fundamental human right to be listed on the web page of a private company.

Re: Hello Yahoo !

Up to Yahoo who they put on their site. If they don't want Iran then dont put Iran. Prehaps they don't get enough people from Iran to bother including it.

Re: Hello Yahoo !

Good Point Dan.
I've tried to sign up for things but they don't include the UK, I don't bother making a fuss I just leave the site. No biggie.
