The M-I-5 guy probably isn't even using Google as his newsgroup reader
to make posts, so that would make it impossible for them to take any
real action against the guy. But they certainly could filter out his
posts for other people who do use Google Groups as their newsgroup
reader. That's definitely within their power.
