your isp hosts the content to allow it's subscribers access. how good Bellsouth is i don't know.....Roadrunner is tolerable thanks to QuickPar. stop being so paranoid about safety ffs. they'll be going after Bittorrent long before Usenet. i used Usenetserver for over a year.....they have issues at times but i was too lazy to switch. they've been much better recently, increasing their retention and providing Encrypted UseNet Access if that'll make you feel better. you ought to check it out for a month....you'll never give it up. |

but UseNet speeds and the utility of progs like NewsLeecher make paying a few bucks per month pretty attractive - particularly if they offer additional anonymity. |

Your isp can theoretically keep track of everything you do, so if their servers are enough for you, you don't need a pay server for anonymity. All that is predicated on you NOT threatening the President btw.

you mean, even if i am not using my isp's news server, they can still track my d/ls, since the packets are coming thru them?
