Garbled nonsense.

The basic structure of how articles pass from server to server and to
clients has not changed, only the underlying physical transfer has
changed from modems over phone lines to direct TCP/IP connections.

Feeding USENET articles to a BBS was always something that could be
done, but was seldom done and is not part of USENET.

Fidonet was never a part of USENET.
