Will Yahoo Mail be affected by the shutdown of news, cricket, and entertainment websites in India, or will the email address change?

Yahoo stated in the FAQ section that the business has ceased publishing material in India and has shut down its content activities in the nation as of August 26, 2021. “This was not an easy decision for us to make. Yahoo India, on the other hand, has been harmed by changes in Indian regulatory laws that now ban foreign ownership of media organizations that operate and publish digital content in India.” Yahoo has a long history with India, and we’re really proud of the premium, local content we’ve delivered our readers here for the last 20 years,” the company stated.
