Yahoo officially sold themselves, renamed Altaba

One of the greatest technology companies in history has been officially acquired by US telecom operator Verizon.
According to Reuters, Yahoo's entire portfolio of search, email and Yahoo Messenger messaging tools was valued at $ 4.48 billion, down from $ 4.8 billion last year.
The sales deal was announced last year, then delayed due to company scandals, including the leak of user data.

Verizon is also planning to cut Yahoo's 2,000 employees after the acquisition.
