that do not have any news servers. Verizon FIOS, Time Warner Cable and
Optimum Online are three major ISPs in the USA that do not support NNTP. If
you are a customer of these ISPs and want access to the Usenet groups you
must pay for a private subscription to a public news server. A non technical
minded end user may never have heard of Usenet and wonder where the
technical support is.
