Re: The Comcast Newsgroups Service Discontinued Give us a break. They're dropping 70,000 filtered text groups.
This is just the first salvo in the war against all P2P traffic. The internet is being converted into one never-ending Geico commercial. I guarantee ISPs will be blocking all P2P traffic within a year or two. |

So Comcast is only dropping text groups and we'll still be able to download files on binary groups? -- »Celestia-this is a REALLY COOL program!!! |
