I'm also using nntp (Usenet) and see very little spam. There was a flurry of
about ten *extremely* obnoxious pr0n spams in a row, and the occasional odd
one here or there, but generally I see hardly any.

It is ironic that some people say that the solution to the spam problem is
to move to Google Groups, because most of the spam comes *from* Google
Groups.
