- Organization: ARMM Services, Bincancel Division
- Keywords: ARMM - Automated Retroactive Minimal Moderation
-
- Binary posts do not belong in unmoderated discussion groups.
-
- I run a program that searchs for, and issues advisory cancels for,
- large binaries in the akr, biz, comp, misc, news, rec, and sci
- hierarchies.
-
- I have issued 43 advisory cancels for large binary files or parts
- thereof (total size 2,999,439 characters) posted to 7 different
- unmoderated discussion groups in the comp and rec hierarchies as
- follows:
- 34 rec.music.industrial
- 3 rec.motorcycles.harley
- 2 rec.music.marketplace.cd
- 1 rec.radio.shortwave
- 1 comp.os.os2.mail-news
- 1 comp.dcom.modems
- 1 comp.ai.neural-nets
-
- This pointer is being posted to each affected group listed above.
- Follow-ups are directed to news.admin.net-abuse.misc.
-
- If you want to see exactly which file was deleted from a particular
- group, read the full report in news.admin.net-abuse.announce. The
- full report can also be found in alt.nocem.misc and alt.retromod.
- Look for AR303 in the subject, or, if your reader supports it, use
- this URL: news:ARMM-Report-303@redpoll.mrfs.oh.us
-
- The criteria used to search for this batch of large binaries were:
- NEWSGROUPS: Unmoderated akr, biz, comp, misc, news, rec, or sci
- (except for comp.binaries.apple2, comp.bugs.2bsd,
- and rec.games.bolo)
- BINARY: (base64, binhex, uuencode, and xbtoa encoded files, etc.)
- SIZE: > 100,000 characters (size * number of parts, if multi-part)
-
- If you must post a binary to Usenet, please post it *only* to an
- appropriate binaries newsgroup such as alt.binaries.misc, and do *not*
- crosspost it to non-binaries groups. This permits news administrators
- and users to decide for themselves whether to receive binary files.
-
- Please direct public feedback to news.admin.net-abuse.misc and private
- feedback to red@redpoll.mrfs.oh.us. Thanks.

- Best wishes,
- Dick
