Sorry, I forgot that everyone does not use the same 
software to read posts here.  

I use Google Chrome and my comments were based on 
that. Presumably since Google is hosting the newsgroup, 
they have the power to remove posts. 

But as I think of it, I can't say whether Google removed 
the posts I reported from everyone's feed, or just mine.

[And I misreported where to find the 3 dots: they're on the 
Subject row for each post - so you can "report" individual 
posts as "abuse".]
