and what about all the other REAL Usenet servers on the web that are
outside
US jurisdiction, the ones that will politely say "**** you" when a US
court
asks them to remove something from the DISTRIBUTED DATABASE that is
Usenet.
Douggie is so clueless (for someone who apparently ran a Linux Shop and
wrote security apps for it) that he thinks Google owns Usenet (I couldn't
be
bothered to find the little titbit that Douggie said to Steven Brooks,
something along the lines of "what will you do when Google is forced by
legislation to remove the lies and crap by posters like you" (insert more
name calling as per Douggie))
for someone that apparently ran a BBS he sure knows sweet FA about the way
the net (and Usenet in particular) works.
