I don't know if these meet your definitions No. 3 and 4, though. I am
not an expert.

Thanks for the three additions.

I'll check each of them out & report back.
The results will benefit everyone.
For clarification, the definitions are thus:
- Free, here, means no money is required, no matter how it is defined.
- Public, here, means the newserver is purposefully open to the public.
- General use, here, means posting to many text newsgroups is supported.
- Static, here, means all posts & nyms have the same IP obfuscation.
- Dynamic, here, means each post or nym has a different obfuscation.

Warning, anyone using the afore mentioned "free" news servers will be clearly pegged as a "free tard" who can't afford decent service. And that goes double for Google Groups users. The admins who run these servers are so deluded they think they can "tame the beast" ( i.e. censor Usenet ). Many have tried, none have succeeded. Usenet is NOT WikiPedia.

Very nice find.

Two out of those three worked perfectly the first time.
I'm still having trouble getting the xs usenet one to post.
news.solani.org 119
It was easy to register as they sent back a login/password immediately
and the posting worked the first time. The IP address was obfuscated
so that's a requirement. I'm not sure if it's static or dynamic
obfuscation yet.
freenews.netfront.net 119
There is no registration. A test post using a blank username and
a blank password worked the first time. The IP address is revealed in
the clear, so that's really bad - but otherwise, it's a nice server.
free.xsusenet.com 119
It was easy to register as they sent back a login/password immediately,
but the posting failed using that login/password. I was able to log into
their web site using that login/password - so I wonder if the "free"
service allows posting (despite what they say to the contrary).
Here is how I tried to test the posting ability using telnet:
$ telnet free.xsusenet.com 119
