Google did the same to its Google+. Those a-holes just destroyed it all,
the bathwater, the babies, all of it. Then they said we can download an
archive, but it was hyper buggy! Check this out:

I actually lost some novel fractal algorithms on there! Anyway...

I have linked to many interesting posts using google groups into
comp.lang.c. Google has a fairly decent search into Usenet, so be it.
They are all banned now wrt comp.lang.c! Why destroy something just
because some bastard spammers exist? Pardon my French, but FUC@ Google
for this shi%. Let me curse in qbert ease, vent a bit...
!@$%^&^&%$%%GQ#$#@$@@. There. Take that Google! ;^)
 
Damn it all to hell. Whats next, banning sci.crypt? comp.lang.c++? Ahh,
Googles own code might not be able to ban comp.lang.c++ because when
they executed the command, the ++ was stripped off and they banned
comp.lang.c. WOW! They were sending user posts meant for comp.lang.c++
to comp.lang.c. Damn, what a total sad Joke!

Also see <https://lwn.net/Articles/827233/>, which seems to be from
when comp.lang.lisp got the same treatment back in July.
