I don't think thats the case. I'm the senior admin at the Dallas backup
site for Netcom. I'm setting up several backup news servers here and we
aren't doing any alt.* censorship. "alt" groups are still sucking up lots
of bandwidth and gigs :-).
On the other hand the San Jose site has had a lot of power problems and
news software problems to contend with lately (hence the idea of a "backup"
site for netcom :-) ) Maybe you are branching to a conclusion?
Now if there was only a way to tie the scientology thing in with the alt.*
censorship conspiracy.
