Keep Yahoo "Classic"?

Today 7/8/13, Yahoo has shut me out of Yahoo "Classic", and I understand from reading, that I have to agree to lots of things I do not wish, to do with privacy.

Does anyone have an answer to this problem. I was happy with "Classic" and will have to change to another server, rather than to give up rights I feel are necessary.

Also, I am not opening the "NEW" Yahoo, unless I find it impossible to continue without it.

I appreciate your knowledge !

    In the past, you could force the Yahoo server to continue allowing you to use Classic Mail by going into your computers control panel and minimizing your graphic resolution. Now, that is no longer an option. I say get rid of Yahoo. My only problem is figuring out how to get my new email address to old clients. Yahoo really messed up with this move. But now, I have no other choice but to figure it out and leave Yahoo.

    P.S.

    Thanks Yahoo for NOT sending an email to your users before making a mandatory change. Now the people that actually do business through your server know that you are risky, if not unethical. Good Riddance, Yahoos.
