Tangent related to this. I had an old yahoo mail address from late 90s till mid 00s before I switched to gmail. Lots of family / high school / college / early professional emails were there.
The other month I logged in to view them as I do every so often and yahoo had purged the entire archive. Like 20MB worth of emails gone.
Apparently they have a policy if you do not log in in a year of time they will delete everything with no way to recover.
I can’t imagine the decision making to put this policy in nor could I ever imagine using yahoo email again for any purpose whatsoever.
