• lack of spam

    From David Dalton@21:1/5 to All on Mon Sep 4 03:21:42 2023
    I guess the relative lack of spam on this group is due
    to the fact that it is no longer carried by google groups.

    That would be an incorrect guess, the lack of spam is due to a rather
    dead usenet group, it is still carried by Google Groups which bought
    Deja News way back and merged it into GG.

    You are write, it is carried. I must have typed it in incorrectly
    the last time I tried to access it on google groups.

    Eternal September is better than GG, better threading using a news
    reader.

    Or, they (Yes, the unknown mysterious "they") have
    suddenly realized that there are so few readers here,
    that it is just a waste of time and energy to
    spam or advertise here.

    Well as I say, I never use it. However, there is spam on other groups, so
    maybe some other servers have dropped it. If you look at for example alt.sadistic or alt.torture you see many phone sex comons type posts there.

    I don't know I never use Google groups, they have ruined the old Deja principals to suit their own ends.

    I doubt that is the case. The spammers seldom care where they post, you only have to look around groups for the folk peddling drugs to realise this.
    I think its filtering myself.
