Once upon a time, when Blinky was around (RIP Lee) there was a project
that tried to do exactly that, as Google Groups always was the main
source of spam on Usenet.
One more thing... If it's possible, would it be worth it to filter out
all new articles from Google since they are possibly the biggest producer
of spam on Usenet?
out of curiosity, I took a look at the latest newgroup control messages
from control.newgroup and cross-referenced them with the ISC file at >https://ftp.isc.org/pub/usenet/CONFIG/newsgroups, with my own server, and >with Google Groups. . . .

by my group and it would be a real shame for me not to include those.
