Best Usenet Provider I've Used In 30 Years
I've been with TweakNews since 2016 and have never contemplated leaving!
I've been on Usenet since the mid 90's and had to first pay for an NSP when my ISP dropped their free Usenet service in the early 2000's at which time I started using whatever US NSP had good pricing and retention (15+ days was pretty epic back then).
There was a mass exodus from the US providers in late 2015 when changes to the DMCA saw take-downs occurring within hours and all future (re)posts of the same file being taken down instantly.
TweakNews follows NTD policy, not DMCA, meaning in the worst instance files stay up for a week before being taken down, not hours.
TweakNews also owns its network backbone and data centers making it a Dutch based Tier-1 Provider who sell access to their data to such US providers like Newshosting, UsenetServer, EasyNews and Astraweb to name a few but they need to follow the DMCA policy being US companies...bypass them and go straight to the source I say, DMCA be dammed!
So I've been using TweakNews for 7+ years now and I'll probably be using them in 7 years from now :)
