What is Usenet?

What Is Usenet?

Usenet is a worldwide distributed discussion system established in 1979 — predating the World Wide Web by over a decade. Organized into more than 110,000 active newsgroups, it remains one of the most enduring platforms for community discussion, knowledge exchange, and collaboration across topics ranging from science and technology to humanities and politics. Users connect through newsreader software via encrypted NNTP connections to a provider like NewsDemon.

NewsDemon holds the only authorized copy of the "First Official Announcement of USENET," originally posted in 1979. We've been part of this community since 2001.

Rated 4.6 out of 5 on Trustpilot with 319 independent reviews

★★★★★

I switched to NewsDemon from a different provider after I was getting a lot of missed articles. The staff were really helpful in converting my block account to an unlimited account. Speeds are good. Retention is great.

This company is a breath of fresh air in the usenet area. No issues with price raising, no issues with playing games with my plans, no issues with maxing out my 1Gbps line. The retention is really solid and their team is easy to deal with.

Having been a customer at Giganews since 2006, old files that I thought were lost forever suddenly appeared and downloaded perfectly on NewsDemon. At full speed. And at a much more competitive price.
