AT&T 's Official Newsgroup Announcement

According to this alt.bin* and alt.bain* are no longer available, It's a shame to throw the baby out with the bath water. Anyway here is the link

Currently there are no reported issues.

I love it. That is, if you overlook the mushroom cloud of all the newsgroups getting nuked.

Nice! Now I can officially quit the internet. Guess you don't like money, huh AT&T?

Absolutely totally stinks! They've devalued their entire Internet offering and of course haven't lowered the price to compensate.

Quite a reversal, too, from a few years ago and the launch of "BellSouth newsgroups" to reaffirm being committed to offering newsgroup service with DSL.

This is upsetting as it appears that in the filter process, they are getting rid of LEGITIMATE newsgroups.
I decided this was enough, so I joined Newsdemon as my Newsgroups provider now.
For all of you that are interested, they're offering 15% off FOR LIFE for anyone that is interested as an ATT/Comcast/Time Warner refugee.

At&t will not be my ISP much longer.. I will cancel all service with them at the end of the month and will be shutting my home phone off, Also I will soon shut down my cellular service with them in protest! Hope it was worth it At&t...

If I actually thought comcast would be better I would switch, speakeasy is just to expensive here for me. Does comcast still have news groups?

And so it has begun.........

I knew when ATT took over that everything would
turn to mountains of fresh cow manure.

The first thing I noticed was that some nut-jockey
had been messing around with my DSL connection.

Look forward to more crap.

And have fun, kiddies

Not exactly. They outsource to giganews and you get 2 GB per month free. I think I remember reading in their forum a couple of years back that there was a loophole that the 2GB applied per email address. So if you created the maximum allowed per account, you would get a higher monthly limit. No idea if that loophole was ever closed.
