Yahoo’s Data Breaches Unlikely to Derail Verizon Deal – Bloomberg (Dec 27, 2016)

This is an interesting take on the repeated Yahoo breaches and the implications, and it goes along with my gut sense that people have very short memories when it comes to security and privacy breaches. There’s lots of outrage in the short term, but it blows over very quickly, as any Google Trends search relating to a major breach will tell you. The hits keep coming with Yahoo, but ultimately I expect Verizon’s acquisition will still go through.
