trying to turn us into serfs by refusing to allow us to own our own

costly to switch providers.
I don't know about Yahoo! and co., but Google has a
"bring-your-own-domain" version of some of its services, including
Gmail, see: http://www.google.com/a/ - which allows exactly that.
Disclaimer: This is in beta like so much of Google's stuff, and new
users have to be "approved" - worked instantly for me. And I don't
have Google shares or something... just a happy user (I almost said
customer... it's easy to forget that Google's users aren't their
customers but their "merchandise" :-). And my employer provides
DNS-related services.
