So I suppose you are disconnecting from the internet and will no longer
use it at all.

This because every major internet company is almost certainly doing the
same thing you are complaining about Yahoo doing.

Governments, especially the US, will continue to "monitor" the internet,
legally or not.

Yahoo and others are simply trying to stay alive. A US company that did
not "cooperate" would suffer the wrath of the government. While I wish
they would stand up to the government and prevent this sort of
unjustifiable spying, it's not going to happen.

I am sorry to see you go, but your stated reason makes no sense, as
there is nowhere to go that does not have the same problem.

All the best.
