This is not about RSS, which has nothing specifically to do with discussion groups (it was originally designed for blogs, so that you could subscribe to an RSS feed and then check your RSS feeds to see when new content had been added to the blogs whose RSS feeds you subscribe to; there is also a competing standard, called Atom, but most programs that handle RSS now handle Atom as well). This is about archiving a mailing list without permission of the subscribers or the list owner. RSS is only a mechanism for notifying users of the archiving website when it has added posts. -- David W.
