   I mean the large network running internet protocols.

And that depends on what you define as an internet protocol.  In my
book, NNTP is a "internet" protocol, and was so from day one.

   Of course, nowadays most newsgroup traffic goes over the internet,
   but that was not originally the case.

Sure it was, but this ofcourse depends on how you define the
"internet". :-)

Cheers.
