Giganews is funding interner censorship organisations such as the IWF (you can find Giganews logo on their page). I would not touch Giganews with a bargain pole, the internet was meant to be free of censorship.

He didn't say the retention would be 365 days now. So calm down a little. :)

Everyone is calm, AstraWeb says they currently offer 295 days on their frontpage, it is not relevant to the article what they may or may not have in a few months.
