The StartPage search engine which prides itself on providing you with search privacy has decided to drop its association with Yahoo on its Ixquick version. Due to the amazing Yahoo passwords debacle, Ixquick/StartPage no longer feel comfortable partnering with them.
This isn't the only company that has decided to distance itself from Yahoo, since DuckDuckGo has also dropped references to using Yahoo from their site as well.
It's news of a sort, but to be honest, most people won't notice, and fewer will care. It is however just another blow to the reputation of Yahoo, which was once one of the major players and has become a sad also run in the last few years.
