Usenet has no security of any sort.  It wasn't designed for that... it came
from an era when if you saw something inappropriate, you called the sysadmin
at the site that it came from and he dealt with the user appropriately.  Those
days are long, long gone.  Google won't even deal with you by phone.

Forgery has been a long tradition on Usenet dating back to April 1, 1984,
when someone posted as "chernenko@kremvax.UUCP" claiming to be the premier
of the Soviet Union and welcoming Soviet Usenet access.  Ironically, when
Russia did get connected up to Usenet in 1990, Vadim Antonov heard about the
earlier forgery and set his server up as kremvax.
