Mostly correct, but Usenet posts are not emails (though they have
some similarities, particularly in the organization of the headers),
nor are they part of the web (Usenet predates http).

The Usenet protocol does provide for cancelling messages (by
sending a control message that refers to the message-id of the
message being cancelled), but due to past abuse (cancel messages
are not authenticated) most Usenet servers ignore cancels.

Note also that Google Groups merely provides an interface to Usenet.
GG has the biggest archive, but the core of Usenet is a collection
of independent NNTP servers.

Bottom line: You almost certainly can't cancel a Usenet post once
you've sent it.
