I didn't complete my sentence correctly. I said "Another thought that concerns me is that I believe I read that one or more of the creators of what is now Yahoo groups was bought out by Yahoo around 1999."
It should have been "Another thought that concerns me is that I believe I read that one or more of the creators of what is now Yahoo groups, which was bought out by Yahoo around 1999, is/are working on developing groups.io."

Ditto for me. I have the same concerns as Barb, plus, will the 1G option be free in the future? To keep it free, could there at some time be a cap on the number of messages? Right now there is no limit on the number of messages even if they in total exceed 1G.
Another thought that concerns me is that I believe I read that one or more of the creators of what is now Yahoo groups was bought out by Yahoo around 1999. What assurance do we have that the same thing might not happen with groups.io, except being bought out by maybe another company instead of Yahoo? Then, probably, we would once again have to cope with being inundated with advertisements, maybe higher charges for space, and maybe once again experiencing the slowness and other problems we now experience with Yahoo.
