Once upon a time, Google included usenet groups in the results returned
from a default (Web) search. That doesn't seem to happen now; instead you
are pointed to thread fragments on the compilation sites. (This is a
snapshot at a useful point in the history of Google and usenet. The whole
story is much more involved).

Also, compilation sites allow (for me at least) to see posts while at work.
I haven't tried using my web brower's news reader, but I do not know if
that activity will be allowed on the PC.

And you believe that is a good thing?

Does your employer agree to pay you to spend time attending to your
personal finances while you are at work?

What company is that?

I'm not familiar with your posts and am unsure if you are using humor here
or not.

In answer to your question, an employee may browse the internet over
he/she's lunch hour (which is unpaid time) to check news headlines, sports
scores, or (in this case) look for new messages, if the activity does not
use excessive bandwidth.
