OT besides all the spam, Google Groups is screwing up the USENET archive




Yes the public USENET archive is Google Groups property, but if they
continue to mess up the archive, their net value to USENET will soon
become negative. Like now when I do a search trying to find an
appropriate group to ask a question, I'm getting hundreds of garbage
Google Groups instead of proper USENET groups. Hosting 90% of spammers
and trolls is bad enough.

Uhg.
