Today, it was announced that Verizon will acquire parts of Yahoo, which will include Yahoo Groups, in early 2017.

Whether Yahoo Groups will continue in a similar form or not is unknown at this time. However, Yahoo Groups is one of the most
popular services/features of Yahoo, so it is likely that it will continue. I will keep you informed.
