"steve", your knowledge base in telecom is 15 to 20 year obsolete. you had
better spruce up your skill set if you intend to stay employed. of course, if
your intention is to retire on unemployment benefits ...
Jox, you prove every time you post that your knowledge base in
everything is nonexistant.

No it's not. It's still around, just under a different name. You think
the DOD puts everything on the public Internet?
There is a reason for that.
lol, I'd love to hear your reason why the arpanet is long gone.
btw, "steve" to get ARPANET connection you were authorized access by a
university research dept or by the Dept of Defense????????????
Both. But then again, this whole arpanet tangent is a red herring on
your part since it has absolutely nothing to do with usenet except that
it was a carrier for part of the usenet traffic. usenet used several
different carriers and is not an Internet Protocol.

You can get a
newsfeed without an ISP. The usenet has been around much longer than
the commercial internet as we know it today and for the most part used
UUCP to transfer messages. And you can still use that method without
having any internet access at all.
Oh, I used UUCP for mail and USENET 15+ years ago, but I thought it was
deader'n a doornail by the late 90s. It's certainly technically possible
to move a newsfeed via UUCP, but I have to wonder if you could actually
find anyone who would do it!
Me. I still use UUCP to connect a newsserver on a linux box without
using an internet connection to a newsfeed that has one. The reason for
doing it that way is more political (that I really don't want to get
into) then technical. But there may be other reasons as well, like the
type of access you may have in remote locations, to not use an ISP.
But back to the original point, it is possible to read and post to
usenet newsgroups without using an ISP ... and Jox just bring himself to
admit that's true.
