The last column in the current issue of PC magazine is an obituary for
Usenet. This group, and others like it, are now like CB radio in the
early 1980's. There are still a few die hards out there talking but the
airwaves are gradually going quiet.

10-4 good buddy. What's your 20?....

I think the declining use is due to netkkkopping. Ganz has gotten posting
to entire newsgroups from any subscriber prohibited by certain Usenet
Service Providers. It's only a matter of time before everyone on Usenet
is banned.



More likely due to unrestricted cross posting.
It's easy to destroy a group that way.

No doubt, but Ganz netkkkops that too.
