    Many years ago Google had an Answers site.

    They shut down due to abuse and warnings from the Federal Media Government body.

    It cost to much to monitor if as Yahoo did have Community Guidelines of which you don't act on when things are reported.

    No company would pay a fraction of the money Verizon has already paid

    A company would be better off starting anew, rather than acquiring this site...so, no.

    I don't because if they did they wouldn't be allowed to use "Yahoo" as part of the product name because "Yahoo" is trademarked, and also I think it would be a lot less expensive to start their own Q&A site. Yahoo is not going to allow their proprietary name be used and run the risk of the name being sullied. It just won't happen because the Yahoo brand name spans several products.

    Why don’t you buy it and save us

    Yahoo won't let it happen, at least they'd be all greedy about it, overcharge big time. They like to have things stay dead and rot instead.
