The usenet servers all over the world have admins that run them, they
are their own kingdoms and they control them. In the old days we use to
cancel ot post and stuff that we didn't like in chartered groups, today
it's mostly let run loose.
MS had Usenet server admins, several of them, and they run a Usenet
server that peers with others, that's how your provider gets the info.
You are right, technically, there is not SINGLE Usenet admin, but each
server or farm has admins that control their own servers, so, at their
location there is a Usenet Admin.
