Never heard of copyright?

Moving sci.math posts to a purely Google group sounds pretty dubious.
In any case, have you seen any sign that Google gives a damn about
spam? I haven't.

The overwhelming majority of the spam is coming from their servers,
not from outside them, so I just don't see why you expect them to
rescue us. Besides, if you use a proper Usenet interface (not a web
interface), the spam isn't a big deal.

Seems like you're a Linux user; me too (Etch). What "Usenet
interface" is available? KNode??

Maybe there needs to be an entirely new protocol that has some "error"
correction.
