Better to contact the chinese Chamber of Commerce and educate them on
how these spammers damage the reputation their entire business. They'll
probably have the guy shot.

I sent them some information which I can't repeat here.
Maybe I'll send some more to them.

Problem is, if you click on the link you just supplied,  then they see
that the hit to their website came from this usegroup.

This isn't a "usegroup", it's a newsgroup on USENET, and your posting
to USENET through google groups brands you as clueless since there are
avenues (some free) you could traverse which would get you onto USENET
directly and free you from being considered google manacled.


Kind of like dealing with us directly instead of having to go through
an agent.

Can you access the binary newsgroups through google groups?

No.

Do you even know what the binary groups are?

Probably not.

Clue:

I post a verbal description of a circuit to sed and a binary.pdf to
abse.

Can you access abse from google groups?

No, and since you can't, if you want to see the schematic then it
falls on me to email it to you or to post it to some website which you
can access at _your_ convenience, not mine, even though you're the one
who wants the document.

Kind of upside-down, it seems to me since, in that instance, the
purpose of USENET has been subverted by google groups.- Hide quoted text -

OK, so google has subverted USENET. Is the solution to start bashing
someone becuase they committed the crime of posting to this group via
google?
(I am not saying you did)

Build up an FAQ and point out why posting via google is not the best
way to get the full benefit of the group. Point out the advantages of
using a news reader.

Immediately jumping on people because they took advantage of the
google posting tool makes for great sport (I guess), but it does not
do much else.
