I never connected the two... but with Yahoo's announcement yesterday of the biggest breach of personal data - how many people have Paypal etc. tied to their Yahoo accounts for Flickr sales? 500 million users personal info was stolen.

I expect them to start charging for it. It's an obvious way to start pulling more money out of users, and the new owners will jump on it. Just like Microsoft did with OneDrive - when people actually started using all that promised free storage, they ended it.

The breach happened in 2014, so if there have been consequences it is a little late to be preoccupied.
