How can we be sure it's not a rumor this time Yahoo! Answers is shutting down?

For years I have been hearing rumors that Yahoo! Answers will be shutting down and it never did. How do we know this time it's not a rumor? Even the above announcement that says: "Yahoo Answers is shutting down on May 4th, 2021 (Eastern Time) and beginning April 20th, 2021 (Eastern Time) the Yahoo Answers website will be in read-only mode. There will be no changes to other Yahoo properties or services, or your Yahoo account.
