I dunno - I feel like it's committing Dunning-Krugers to say, "Just run Yahoo! better, sheesh." because there's a ton we can't see on the surface of the company, looking in, that the business currently has to cope with.

If anything, these two hacks being announced years later, along with their voluntary NSA backdoor, demonstrates that Yahoo! has skeletons in their closet.

It is, but at this point what have shareholders got to lose? By the way, I'm available. I went on record in my book 21 years ago that Yahoo was my favorite web directory (the term 'search engine' hadn't been coined at that point) so I've been following Yahoo since not long after it was a gleam in Jerry Yang's eye. At this point I figure that makes me as qualified as anyone else to run it.

Inquiries to my username...@gmail. Go on Yahoo board, ask me why I switched and you might learn something useful.
