Open to free speach isn't the same as being wide open to any abuse
people care to through in. Usenet (Text-Only) is subjected to Gigabytes
of junk every day, much of which is stripped out by filters such as
Cleanfeed. If it wasn't for those filters every group would be full of
adverts for every ripoff service in the world, just like unfiltered
email.
AIOE aren't alone in running some form of filtering, I'd bet that every
service out there, free or pay, has some kind of filtering/flood
prevention in place.
