This group, like much of Usenet, requires users to understand the real
purpose of Usenet along with associated specialized news readers and
NNTP hosts. Older users, such as myself, have grown up using NNTP
services; younger users will never discover Usenet because they
migrate to other services. I find material from on-line HTTP forums
and often share here and elsewhere within Usenet. But I am
comfortable with NNTP processes.
What remains on these Usenet forums are adverts mainly. The teen
stuff is quite sad given how off-topic it is in grouos I visit.
Count your lucky stars that Hugh, Blob has slowed down in his efforts
to 'control' something uncontrollable. I know I have benefited from
his various floods in the past, but his adding watermarks hits my kill
filter.
And, of course, the DCMA activity of a few websites and caused a
decrease in sharing. My guess is that their traffic has not
beneifited from their actions, but it's their loss.
