As the article says, because the letter it's supposed to be good for you, just the companies found their way to pass along the message they want.

But yeah, it's all a bit crazy.

Re:Yahoo stopping all new development of YUI on Friday August 29, 2014 @03:30PM (#8244158)
That's from 2011, I'm not sure if that qualifies as 'recent' in the JS world these days.
I wonder is this is the first step towards Opera taking over IE as window's default browser. That would be an interesting turn of events..
