Is it?? I use a public domain server in FAAAR off Austra"iy"lia 
::news.cairns.net.au:: and there seem to be no problems accesing the Usenet 
groups AFAICT (some 66,000 or so)....If Satyam is policing, it certainly is 
not doing a good job of it....

And what do we call this chap who trashed the rtfm.mit.edu server::certainly 
not a "hacker"
