Not perhaps to the extent you may think or which the question implies,
however, the intent reflects not only the non-filtering now done within
the forum, err, group, but also to the parties and what one will now
find here within the messaging, not only via NNTP but also upon
Microsoft via the web interface.

It was more a comfort level warning, and a reminder of what to expect
for those, perhaps, unfamiliar with unfiltered Usenet.
