It's good news to hear that a wacko censor, Celeste (in alt.support.srs)
has been put out of business. We'll have to keep working on free speech
issues so that all the censors are put out of business and the speech is
truly free on UseNet.

Does your news server allow forged cancels? That promotes censorship
on content. A UseNet Death Penalty was issued because of my warning
about a crooked ISP -- ** Texas.Net ** -- cheating the customers.
Complain in a post to austin.internet about the UDP and censorship!!
