I had been downloading about data for about 30 stock symbols once or twice a day for years.
This was a handy service that gave Yahoo credibility to me but evidently there were those who completely abused the handy service by downloading hundreds if not thousands of stocks minute by minute. It's those who wrecked it for their own need for greed. They should have been contracting with a service to provide them with data.
For the rest of us it is now gone. Yahoo could have easily given each person perhaps a limit of 10 or 100 downloads per day by counting the IP addresses as other web sites do.
So don't blame Yahoo or Verizon. Blame it on those that have to have the world for free and will abuse whatever free service you provide. They are the ones who are all about themself who wreck the world for everyone else.
