So I no longer have control of my own machine??? That's crazy. Having USENET
access is not a right. You get it out of the kindness of everyone elses heart
and if someone is nice enough to give you a feed you take what you can get.
If you want to complain that you're not getting everything then pay for the
service through uunet and complain to them if they don't feed you what you
want to read. Otherwise, thank your feed for giving you something.
