Images extracted from the messages, displayed as thumbnail pages. This isn't just usenet access, it is a content aggregator and presentation format. you can then download those images without ever seeing the newsgroup messages attached to them.
That crosses the line.

Once again Alex this is yet another example of your misinformation, lack of knowledge, and ignorance about Usenet and our service.
I'd strongly encourage you to support your future statements about our service with factual information.
Once again... we do NOT filter, aggregate, extract or archive Usenet content.
While there are companies that extract, edit and archive Usenet content... I believe GUBA is one of them... that has nothing to do with our service.
We are a Usenet service, and we provide realtime access to unedited Usenet newsgroup content, through a web-based newsreader that we developed.
We have been providing this service for the past 12 years... along with other companies like Comcast, Adelphia, RoadRunner, etc... and there is nothing illegal about it.
Accessing the newsgroups through our web-based newsreader is no different than accessing the Usenet newsgroups with any other newsreader like Microsoft Outlook, Forte Agent, etc.
The benefit to using our newsreader is that end-users don't have to install any software (they use their web browser), and it's more intuitive for most folks because it is web-based.
Like any other newsreader... and any other Usenet service... end-users have the capacity to sort or organize content within a newsgroup realtime. They can sort content by date, author, subject line, content type, etc.
The URL that you referenced, simply highlights one of those sort options within the newsreader (thumbnail sort).
Regardless of the sort option that an end user selects... date, author, thumbnail, etc... they are sorting that newsgroup content realtime. The entire post is there, nothing has been edited or filtered.
To give you a general feel for the newsreader, you can view the screen captures at this URL...

Like any other newsreader, an end user would view a list of the Usenet newsgroups. They'd select a newsgroup of interest, and view the content within that group realtime.
The end user has a number of options for sorting that content realtime. As an example there's a "Discussion Thread" and "Thumbnail" sort option, which are noted in the screen captures.
At this point, we've said all we can say on this topic, so this will most likely be our last post to this thread.
We've appreciated the opportunity to talk about our service, and if there are remaining questions please feel free to contact us by email or phone. Thanks!
