Yahoo as a brand is probably still worth something. Its a grand father from dotcom bubble that people still recognized. Yahoo still provided a lot of services that people use like Yahoo email for example.

That's a depreciating item, perhaps rapidly so, now that more and more users aren't people who were alive during the dotcom boom.

> Yahoo email for example

The only reason I get yahoo email is because there was a vulnerability a few years ago and everyone's account got broken into.
