Neither your From header field value or signature (both of which are lacking 
a real name, so your credentials could be checked), the server you use to 
post to Usenet (which is notorious for all kinds of network abuse), or the 
domain name it is available at does instill confidence that this is anything 
but a scam, that the URL you posted is worth using and there is no 
potentially harmful content there.

Besides, your approach appears to be lacking proper research and a business 
case.  There are several such services established already, so why support 
or use yours instead?  I think there is enough text in your posting to raise 
suspicion, and too little information to convince anyone.  It is certainly 
insufficient to convince me, and I am a strong supporter of Free Software.  
But you go about this the wrong way.

Not with javascript. Nonsense propagates like wildfire in this field.
