Yep.
I have set up a few INN servers. The problem back in the day was the 
binary newsgroups - people uploading pirate images of massive size..

It does take a bit of looking after. If you let everyone access it 
before you know it there is a huge amount of illegal shit being 
transferred on legitimate newsgroups, ratware is smashing against every 
door it can find and people are trying to DOS it just because someone 
called them out for being a doofus.

But technically its not hard to do for a small community of users
