First, get this to net.poliics.  This is NOT a topic for
net.followup!

Second, what ever gives you the idea that the government of
South Africa would PERMIT Usenet to cross it's borders? Frankly,
given the attitude of USENET, I think that the question
is moot, i.e. USENET would be banned in less than 5 seconds.

Stuff and nonsense!  

Freedom of information is counter to SA's survival.
USENET is certainly free, albiet badly abused,
and there even exists SOME information hidden in
less used corners.
