Don't have a yahoo email addy. Don't allow yahoo cookies. Don't sign up to yahoo groups. Don't let yahoo install anything on your pc. Then they wouldn't have any records of your activities to hand over to anyone. I suspect this kind of unethical behaviour is going to stop ppl in china using yahoo at all. Assuming of course that anyone in china knows that this is happening at all. Some advice for anyone who uses yahoo, whether you live in china or not.
