yahoo! recently testified before a senate committee on efforts to protect consumer data and security from third party ads and malware. the federal trade commission's privacy and identity protection associate director also testified. senator carl levin serves as the chairman and john mccain serves as the ranking member. >>> for almost a year the permanent subcommittee on investigations has been investigating hidden hazards to consumer's data privacy and security that results from online advertising. our subcommittee operates in a very bipartisan way and our practices and our rules provide that the ranking minority member may initiate an inquiry, and our tradition is for both sides of the aisle to work on investigations together and our staffs work very, very closely together. this investigation was initiated and led by senator mccain. so i'd like to call on him to give his opening statement first, after which i'll add a few additional remarks. but first, i'd like to commend senator mccain for

advertising services from yahoo!om google, facebook, amazon, all built into one system. i may be stealing this question, but why did it take so long? >> when you start something 15 years back, looking back from now, you realize it was a time when internet was just darting. there was nothing -- the internet was just starting. this is as good a time as any. i will speak for some of the yahoo! shareholders and say now may be as good a time as any, but earlier would have been better because rivals, like etsy has come on the scene. almosts claimed to do $1.4 billion of e-commerce last year. that is volume, in theory. volume, in theory, that you could have had. >> when someone starting their entrepreneurial journey, they might have started with etsy. there comes a time when the association you have as a buyer from these marketplaces is with the marketplace, not with the small business themselves. you mention etsy, but you would be hard-pressed to name a specific seller that you work with or that you love. growth are you se

s, two goingle googles. >> we're yahoo!. >> the yahoo!'s on yahoo!. >> i think yahoo!nteresting. had a nice day today. lis en, the quarter was disappointing in the middle of july. i think everybody knows that. i don't think they get any credit. this alibaba, people are wrapping their heads around it. they raised the price target to 44 bucks. you get the $44, that's a 17% move from here. i'll take that any day. >> why google? are you up 1300% from the ipo, kash? >> probably not. i have been long for a long time. i still like it here. i think it's reasonably priced. if you look at yahoo!, those numbers were misleading. while they show great increase, revenue has come down in the last few years. that's not a good thing. really, the way to make -- if you want to be betting on alibaba, then you can bet yahoo!. otherwise i think it's somewhat misguided. much rather be in google. >> nobody has said amazon. >> when you look at amazon on the screen, everyone bets against amazon. when you look at the revenue number, that's incredible. what would you rather be, a company that did

yahoo!'s privacy policy indicates that you do provide information to partners of certain personal information so that yahoo! can communicate with consumers about offers from yahoo! and the marketing partners. then you say the companies you deal with, the partners do not have any independent right to share the information. is the sharing of the information prohibited? >> mr. chairman, while privacy and security are intertwined we have a dedicated privacy team. to get into those details -- >> do you know offhand? >> i do not, sir. >> there is a great emphasis here on education. here's the problem. the business partners of yahoo! and you provide a list on your website of the third party partners, there's over 150 companies that do advertising work alone. you note in the privacy policy that the companies may be placing cookies or web bugs on our computers as we browse. i don't know. how can consumers possibly educate themselves about each of the third parties? there are 150 of them with names lik

if all of yahoo!rthless, that means tumblr ain't worth much either. >> means there's up side. >> takes two to make a market. it is interesting when this acquisition first got announced, a lot of people were in favor of the deal and said if anything, it makes yahoo! younger, fresher. it's a brand. rarely do you see a kpip paying $1 billion to freshen up its image. would you argue it's been success at that? >> i wouldn't argue as far as tumblr is concerned yet. there's a potential in mobile, in younger user, but they node to get busy. >> no brand equity? >> i don't think much. katie couric is out there doing her thing. not sure what the purpose or mission of? yahoo! is, young, old? >> but certainly time will temperature postalibaba especially. >>> in the mobile workplace, conference calls are ubiquitous. so are the things that distract you from those set of conference calls. why no one is listening, and what they're really doing instead. >>> first, rick santelli is always focused. what's he got his eye

who's joined by former yahoo!nd longtime media consultant. >> if anybody is qualified to talk about this fox and time warner deal, it is ross levinsohn. you highlighted his time and yahoo! but he has worked for both rupert murdoch and the boss at time warner. welcome back to bloomberg. we have spent the last couple of weeks getting everyone's reaction to fox's interest in time warner. what did you think? >> i'm not surprised. mr. murdoch and news corp. are incredibly aggressive. they are always looking for ways to advance the company. the thing that jumped out at me most about this if it were to go through and the thing that resonated most with me is the powerful, incredibly powerful executive team that would be part of this combined company. i would almost say it's akin to the murderous row on the 1920's yankees. the team in place between the news corp. side with mr. murdoch and chase carey and james murdoch and peter rice and the executives who run the divisions and on the time warner side, i don't know if jeff

ad network using yahoo! gemini. pulls it all together and also able to advertise on google, facebook, amazon within minutes. this puts us apart from competition. >> why is this interesting? it's funny. i worked in google local five years ago. we did the same thing with reach local and yodel och erg up advertising solutions. why not just do more national big budget ad sails type sufficient as opposed to this with all the support complexity and hassles? >> excellent question too. the way to think about it, every small business is different. if you think about the case of local marketing, if you happen to have a bricks and mortar location that is nationwide, you might want to do national advertising. if you're con traded in one location, that doesn't work. you need someone who is an expert at your local area. in fact, if you don't have a local presence, things like yodel and, just will not work, because you are, in fact, not off-line. so you would then need to have online advertising. our approach is like an app store.

he was the yahoo! chief operating officer from 2002 to 2007, the years alibaba formed a strategic partnership with yahoo! also, cory johnson, who is in new york this week. >> at large, yes. [laughter] >> dan, let's start with you. lots of investments. everyone is trying to make sense of what alibaba is trying to do in the u.s. what do you make of it all? >> it is competent at. it is very different from their strategy in china. the strategy in china is that they start companies, they own them or buy them. it looks like they have learned that the value of investing in these companies, and alibaba has made a fortune for yahoo!, there is a way to get returned both by investing in companies and seeing if they achieve success on their own, or at some point they will try to buy them because that has been the operating premise alibaba has generally followed. >> there are so many. i guess you cannot buy them all, but we have reported before how they hired a former executive from liberty media who specialized at

yahoo!, a lot of these companies started building cdn's in 2006, 2007, but cory is absolutely right in that apple has a huge advantage in that their servers are purpose-phil, built just for delivering apple content. something that is having performance issues and i know it is something that apple wants to correct. going to become imperative to the quality of service they are going to provide customers across other services. >> what about apple's television? it is something we have talked about for months, but good in something like this come into play in a big way if apple comes out with a television set or some kind of television service? >> here is the thing -- once i wrote report a lot of people in the media speculated about itv. this doesn't have anything to do with itv. i don't know if any additional plans or news apple has pertaining to itv. placeis putting this in for software downloads and want to improve performance with icloud and i expect them to use it for itunes and radio conten

you know, yahoo!n't get into the place that it was in a 24-hour period of time and i don't think that it's going to turn around in 24 months, but i don't think it's fair to say that it's not in a better place now than before she came on. i think it's definitely in a better place now. >> eric? >> well, i think, you know, past behavior is the best predictor of future behavior in my experience. and so, why should yahoo! shareholders believe that after wasting $2 billion in acquisitions, that suddenly, the next $2 billion or $3 billion she's going to spend post ali baba are going to be any better? i think there's a pressing need right now for shareholders to step up in the next two months, because we expect the ali baba ipo to come out just after labor day. the cash is going to be in the yahoo! bank account and marissa will have the opportunity to spend it. i think there's a better path forward for yahoo! shareholders, which is to lobby for either ali baba or softbank to buy this company, because one of t

that is how yahoo! japan got so big. , if alibaba were to make an investment in a media company, which i doubt they would do, that those companies could be successful in china. there are some things that china will not allow to happen. i ensure sure part of their argument with people is we have the connections and distribution, we can ring you into asia. i'm certain that is a large part of the dialogue going on. >> is it crazy to think that alibaba could be in a position, after its ipo, to buy yahoo!? >> it is in that position now. i believe it's -- if it is going to be a transaction, it is more likely to be softbank because they have more of an interest in owning yahoo! to get back a greater percentage of ownership babahoo! japan, van ali does in buying the rest of the shares. i think that ship has sailed. public, theba goes story will be more interesting. ceo, you were recently acquisition by an online tearing business. how do you feel about players like alibaba? are they in your mind as you think abo

. >> caller: meyer question is about alibaba and yahoo. is there any reason why alibaba cannot buy yahoo? is there a legal reason? >> no. >> is there a problem? >> okay. i don't think that that is -- let's back out for a second. that's not a reason on yahoo. a lot of people watch the speculation put out there. i think yahoo is a decent earnings story with a big chunk of cash. that's how i want to feel about yahoo. could it get a takeover? hey, you know what, fine, but what i like is the cash that yahoo will have on the balance sheet. that's why i like the stocks. larry robbins has an eye for stocks that can soar. he's a cheap skate. there's still plenty of "mad money" to sink your teeth into. chart week continues with one predatory pattern to avoid. another one that makes many companies go belly up. then i have a ticker down 25% from its highs getting some love today. has the bottom surfaced in the cloud computing stock? we'll find out. hit me with your best shot. calls on the lightning round. stick around. this is cramer. machines will be

i think there's an opportunity between now and that point to own yahoo!. been some fleeing to the old tech names like microsoft and ibm. saying these are some of the only fair valued tech stocks, at least some of the cheapest tech stocks in the market, especially when the momentum selloff occurred and especially when there was a flight out of some of these social media names. how much longer do you think that some of those old tech stalwarts will start -- will see inflows? or do you think that that cycle is over? >> i think we're coming to an end, whether it's this month or in six months from now, i think ultimately it's going to come back to growth. and that's the difficulty that those old companies is face is yes, they're low valuations and they return cash to shareholders. there's some virtues about that. but at the end of the day, if you're a tech investor, you really want to own growth stories. and those companies just don't have the growth stories. you look at companies like amazon, for example, which has been out of favor but coming into the back ha

a targeting advertising targeting service so yahoo has really fallen off the wagon here in terms of advertising they've sold out most of their advertising to microsoft where they're trying to do is make it so that they can target ads better have a say to advertisers look stay with us or come to us because we have these analytics and we can definitely target gravitas and better and therefore you should use us over other companies i think it's a very good acquisition for them so it's a positive even though she might break the bank to. make some of the market first off now and bear what is that hoover i love of her by the way that there are. as uber moves into asia they're facing different bad. including a possible ban in seoul and getting a handle on beijing's that vaccine traffic problems i mean if they can get a handle on that. the sky's the limit so how does a bird launch overseas compares to its service here in the u.s. what do you think. you know it's this when you're an eighteen billion dollars company basically you got to launch everywhere and ultimately what we're going to see
