There's trouble in tweakville; X-Setup's official site is down for
the count. Their Web host (Yahoo!) is apparently being non-responsive?
From CptSiskoX: “Yahoo! has some ridiculous policies
in place. A while ago they had a Terms of Service agreement which
claimed everything hosted on a Yahoo! site (GeoCities division
especially) was property of Yahoo! and all creative works were
relinquished to their ownership, etc. Public outrage surged
against them and they backed down eventually. As I recall, it took
them a few different tries to get the wording acceptable to the
public. Yahoo! took serious public relations damage from that
incident and several others, such as automatically signing all
members up for spam and junk e-mail (unsolicited commercial bulk
as we all know) and the user had the 'responsibility' to get off
the spam lists by changing the preferences (again) even if they
had previously said they did not want to receive the spam. Yahoo!
has continued a pattern of blunders and has a real bone-headed
approach to appeasing their users. It's exactly these type of
idiotic, oppressive and offensive acts that cause people to leave
companies for competitors.” Some are going as far as to
Boycott Yahoo!
now. Yikes.
