Has the imposed spam tainted Yahoo Answers?

I didn't like seeing advertising tacked on under questions and answers.

At first I though it was a few people doing it for extra income. Now I see it everywhere!

How does that make you feel?

    Like a cheap prostitute asking for quarter, but, hey I'm still here, so obviously I'm willing to play my part in Yahoo's latest not-get-rich scheme. ;)

    I assume it is Yahoo doing it for extra income. When it was only on resolved questions, it was almost tolerable. Now, it's everywhere and intolerable. Especially when on a computer where one is prohibited from downloading ad blockers.

    I don't believe so, I haven't even noticed so don't care, if Yahoo didn't sell advertising there would be no site so have to put up with it.
