It may have been at one time but you now need to pay for a VPN or “Usenet provider” to connect to them. I pay yearly $70 for my Usenet provider and another $70 for my private VPN for torrents. There was a one time cost to my board of $100, but it’s a lifetime pass I got on 50% sale during the holidays. Both would equate to roughly one year of a single subscription service if you wanted to dock your boat on a single island.
Is Usenet something that’s available for free? I’ve sailed the high seas for decades, but never gotten into Usenet
