If you use Yahoo services like Yahoo Answers, post comments on News stories, use the games on Yahoo, have a flickr account, etc., AND "share updates", then what you DO on Yahoo does not STAY on Yahoo. It gets shared with people you 'connect' with through email. If you are linked to Twitter and/or Facebook here, it gets shared THERE as well. So folks can see what you post here in your questions, your answers, what photos you put on flickr, what comments you make on News stories. All kinds of things you MIGHT prefer to keep private. So you need to be very careful about (a) sharing updates and (b) "connecting" to other people.

You can see if you share updates at your Yahoo PROFILE, linked here:
http://profile.yahoo.com
Check "Settings" (top right, GEAR icon) > "Activity Sharing"
