Re: Good

Its amazing how ignorant your statements are. You have managed to justify the blocking of a service because of the "children". What about the folks that don't have children / kids and are not worried about these problems (I didn't breed so I shouldn't be responsible for the online safety of your little bastard child)? We get screwed over and end up paying out additional money for something that used to be included with our monthly internet bill because of bad parents.

I'm honestly tired of people like you and the idiots in charge that managed to pull this off. Think about the children! I don't care about your child or the next guys children, they are not my responsibility. The parents of the kid that manages to find porn online should be awarded the "Idiot Parents Of The Year" prize and should no longer re-produce and possible loss custody of their children (Well, probably shouldn't of reproduced in the first place).

Its not all warez, porn and music either. If you don't believe me, check out the following groups.

alt.binaries.3d
alt.binaries.anime
alt.binaries.e-book.technical
alt.binaries.freeware
alt.binaries.cd.image.linux
alt.binaries.linux.iso
alt.binaries.tv

Thats just a few...

In closing, don't make me responsible for your child's welfare on the internet. Bad things can and will happen. If you want to protect your child, don't let them even use a computer. Give them a typewriter and a SuperNES.

ISP's should charge additional money to people with Kids for "filtered" access and leave the rest of us alone.k

Congrats, I did a header pull from the groups you listed above. The only one with no obviously noticeable copyright content is the linux groups

alt.binaries.tv - Contains TONS of copyrighted TV shows

alt.binaries.e-book.technical - Multiple books I saw are copyright and not for free distribution

alt.binaries.anime - Copyrighted material all over the place.


So what was that you were saying about the binary tree again? What reasoning can anyone provide for a ISP to waste money on keeping up a service that 99.5% of the "binary" content that people want from it they aren't supposed to be downloading anyway.

Don't get me wrong, I download tons of stuff from newsgroups. I just don't come onto forums and act like newsgroups serve a real purpose anymore or that I don't know that what i'm doing is technically illegal.

Get over it people, newsgroups are going away, they are a costly service to maintain, their primary use has turned to piracy, and for those who want legitimate access to text groups you can get it free via google or any other number of free providers.

Argue all you want, its not going to change things, its the overall plan of pretty much every ISP, the whole "child porn" thing provided the perfect excuse to finally execute it.

Please do not explain how you were raised as a child. And I am not asking..............................
