Usenet is unmoderated. Once you post it, it sticks forever. We could probably get one of the independent providers to give free access to a new newsgroup. Anyone have any thoughts?

I’ve used Usenet for my content needs for years because it’s so fast and risk free. I think we could also use it for our community discussions.

    A lot of the comment here don’t seem to understand what you’re asking. I think you’re talking about using Usenet for its original purpose (discussion forums), not for piracy.

      I wish more people in the comments were discussing this context of using usenet versus using it as an alternative to torrenting. I have never personally used usenet other than as a pirate and would love to hear how usenet worked. Is it similar to how forums were with threads people could post and then people could reply to? Or is it a totally different concept from reddit/forum style?
