Yahoo, a technology firm, has recently eliminated many pages and sections from its corporate website concerning its diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) policy, TechCrunch reports.
A section of Yahoo’s website once devoted to DEI is now inaccessible and leads to the senior leadership page of the corporation.
A prior iteration of Yahoo’s leadership page from late 2024 had material on diversity and inclusiveness, which is absent from Yahoo’s current website.
The 2022 diversity report from Yahoo is no longer accessible and displays a “page not found” message.
Although available jobs on Yahoo’s employment website continue to display a link to the previous DEI page, the link now redirects to Yahoo’s leadership page.
Yahoo, the proprietor of TechCrunch, made modifications to the website between December 2024 and January 2025, as shown by previous versions of Yahoo’s website archived on the Internet Archive’s Wayback Machine.
Brenden Lee, a representative for Yahoo, said to TechCrunch in a statement: “We overhauled our corporate website late last year as the initial phase of a strategic, multi-stage redesign coinciding with CES and the relaunch of Yahoo Ads.”
The first phase decreased the overall content volume by around 60 percent, emphasizing the optimization of navigation and highlighting our advertising and commercial offerings.
Yahoo is the most recent U.S. corporation to reduce its public declarations about DEI in light of the Trump administration’s continuing initiatives.
Since resuming office, President Trump has enacted many executive orders designed to compel private enterprises to retract their DEI initiatives.
In February, U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi directed the Justice Department to “investigate, eradicate, and sanction” DEI programs at private sector firms that receive government funding.
Numerous technology firms, including as Google and OpenAI, have recently removed references to DEI from their websites.
Meta discontinued its corporate DEI activities just before the inauguration of the Trump administration, citing a “changing” regulatory environment concerning DEI.
Shortly thereafter, Amazon removed references to inclusion and diversity from their annual report submitted to authorities.
In March, TechCrunch reported that UnitedHealth, a major U.S. health insurance company, removed many references to DEI from its website.
