Usenet will never be dropped by NetKnow

Posted by DSY on
Recently some big Internet Provider announced that they are dropping USEnet Newsgroups aka Internet Newsgroups declaring that service passe.



I hope all their customers bolted and these providers have to shut down their internet operations!



USEnet is a cornerstone, fundamental and integral Internet service. Without it Internet would not exist!



Netknow declares it will carry USEnet unless the service dies a natural death. Also look at Google Groups which is Google Portal to Usenet.



Sorry, but if you do not have the internet fundamentals, you should perish. Saying USEnet/Internet Newsgroups are passe is as good as saying Internet e-mail is useless.
