FYI

Usenet is a worldwide distributed Internet discussion system. It was
developed from the general purpose UUCP architecture of the same name.
Duke University graduate students Tom Truscott and Jim Ellis conceived
the idea in 1979 and it was established in 1980. Users read and post
messages (called articles or posts, and collectively termed news) to one
or more categories, known as newsgroups.

Usenet resembles a bulletin board system (BBS) in many respects, and is
the precursor to the various Internet forums that are widely used today.
Usenet can be superficially regarded as a hybrid between email and web
forums. Discussions are threaded, with modern news reader software, as
with web forums and BBSes, though posts are stored on the server
sequentially.

One notable difference between a BBS or web forum and Usenet is the
absence of a central server and dedicated administrator. Usenet is
distributed among a large, constantly changing conglomeration of servers
that store and forward messages to one another in so-called news feeds.
Individual users may read messages from and post messages to a local
server operated by their Internet service provider, university, or employer.

I hope that helps.

Is there something within the report with which you disagree?
