Unless there's still a Yahoo (with the patents, Alibaba stake, and whatever else is left over), which in that case she could technically stay. I'd imagine most of that is going onto the block too.

AIUI Verizon is buying the brand, so although there'll be corporate continuity from today's Yahoo! to Lucky Internet Investments Inc. (or whatever the China/Japan/patents vehicle is called), "staying at Yahoo" means "moving to Verizon".

I believe it's "#1 Lucky Internet Investments Inc." Also that's racist.

Had genuinely not thought of that angle: I simply meant they were lucky investments.
