jun 20, 2013 - Yahoo buys Tumblr

Description:

Yahoo buys Tumblr for 1.1 billion dollars because it was meant to save Yahoo from death. Yahoo lost many customers to google and facebook, so buying Tumblr was their solution, but many users of Tumblr are worried and having meltdowns. The users are afraid that there will be many ads that will pop up, and many people have posted their reactions to it. One post is about how the ads will ruin the site, and that they don't want Yahoo to take away "their Narnia".
