> Great initiative and idea! While I am
personally not interested in
reading USENET that much nowadays, the concept of
providing free, public
access to classic Internet services (public USENET, FTP, IRC, finger, etc.)
gets all my praise. What happened to free, public services these days?
Everything appears to to be subscriber pay-as-you-go based. The
commercialization killed the free spirit of Internet we all loved in the
90s.
