usenet has long-since been continuously inundated by weaponized troll farm
spam from both google and non-google servers, so once google cuts the cord
will many dozens of other servers pick up the slack without missing a beat?

They can charge $500 on the prepaid $25 Visa gift card I used to sign up,
good luck to them.

I don't believe a word Easynews says. They have two of the historically
worst trolls in the last decade still running around polluting things. If
they really enforced their policies, the jerks would have been long gone
by now.
