From reading part of the article it sounds like they (usenet.com) got in some serious shit for promoting piracy on their service. If youtube.com basically said "hey upload and watch all the pirated shit you want, we don't care!" then google would be in some shit too.
But even if usenet.com got shutdown it wouldn't matter, they aren't the biggest usenet provider, giganews probably is.
