Weird Stuff From Newsgroups:
The Janet Jackson Sunbathing Video
alt.binaries.multimedia.nude.celebrities

Okay, I don't actually have the video online because it's very large. About 13 megabytes. It purports to show Ms. Jackson sunbathing in the nude, and appears to have been taken by a paparazzi photographer. I should stress that this video has only been rumored to be of Janet Jackson. As the source is unverified, it is impossible to be sure that it is real and not an imposter. But it is generally believed to be real....

[Image #1] Here is a picture from the Janet video near the beginning. There are more "revealing" shots than this in the video, but I decided to keep the screen shot as clean as I could.

This video was downloaded using Android Newsgroup Downloader from the newsgroup alt.binaries.multimedia.nude.celebrities

  
 
 
[Image #2] Here is a picture of the Janet Jackson video near the end.

I downloaded the video using Android Newsgroup Downloader, but you can probably also snag it with QuadSucker/News if you want to give that a shot.

 

In case you didn't read the above, I don't have this video online, because it's simply too big. People post it all the time in the alt.binaries.multimedia.nude.celebrities newsgroup. If it's not online, just post a request and I'm sure someone will post a copy for you.

You can learn how to download all sorts of things from the alt.binaries newsgroups, including movies, pictures, archive files, music, and more! Newsgroups are fun and easy to download with simple newsgroup downloading tools.

Most Internet Service Providers (ISPs) include basic newsgroup service for free, so chances are you already have access. All you need to do is to download some simple newsreader software to make use of the newsgroups. All of the newsreader programs listed on this website are free to try, and many can be used for an unlimited "trial" period without having to pay anything.

Here are some examples of the types of files that you can downloading from newsgroups:

  • Pictures, such as JPEG/JPG and GIF images
  • Movies, in various formats such as MPEG/MPG, AVI, DIVX, and more!
  • VOB files like those that are used in DVD video
  • Music, such as MP3 and WAV files
  • Archive files, such as RAR and ZIP

The program that you use to access newsgroups is typically called a "newsreader". There are lots of different types of newsreaders. What you're probably most interested in will be called a "binary newsreader" or a "binary newsgroup downloader". The programs that I personally recommend are Binary Vortex for downloading simple things like pictures, and Android Newsgroup Downloader for handling more complex files like movies and music. Both of these readers can be downloaded for free.
