	Freenet - Anarchopedia
		Freenet is an enhanced open source implementation of the system described by Ian Clarke's July 1999 paper "A distributed decentralized information storage and retrieval system", written while Clarke was a student at the University of Edinburgh.
		Freenet attempts to prevent this through "plausible deniability", preventing the user himself from knowing what's on his own node and making it difficult to determine if a piece of information is in any given node without causing the distribution of that piece of information throughout the network to change in the process.
		Freenet does not offer this protection because for efficiency reasons (path shortening) some random nodes are allowed to connect directly to your node, thus exchanging files faster, but thus knowing your IP and thus being able to prove that specific files can be gotten from your computer.

	The Freenet Project - faq - beginner
		Freenet is designed to make communication possible even if there's just one publisher and one reader, and this is already reasonably feasible on the current freenet.
		On Freenet, whatever you do, your identity is still revealed to the first Freenet Node you talk to, and even if you limit yourself to talk only to trusted nodes (a feature that will be implemented in the future), they will have to talk to the rest of the network at some time or another.
		Freenet is based on a balance of positive and negative feedback loops that bring requests for information to a node when it is functioning well, and keep requests away from it when it is not.

	P2P Networks
		Freenet is the brainchild of Navan-born Ian Clarke.
		Freenet provides a platform for all of these beliefs to be published fairly and equally and therefore could provide much needed insight into the minds of cultures different to the western philosophy.
		Freenet is constantly criticized because you have to donate your personal hard drive space to a bunch of strangers that may be very well use it to host content that you disapprove of.

	The Freenet Project - /index
		Freenet is unique in that it handles the storage of content, meaning that if necessary users can upload content to Freenet and then disconnect.
		Freenet is a 501c3 non-profit corporation whose goal is the development of free software that allows users to publish and obtain information on the Internet without fear of censorship.
		Freenet 0.7's most important new feature is its ability to run in a "darknet" mode, to further protect the identities of Freenet users in countries which do not respect freedom of speech on the Internet.

	Global : Ideas : Bank - Freenet - rewiring the internet
		Freenet also employs intelligent routing and caching, meaning that it learns to route requests more efficiently, automatically mirrors popular data, makes network flooding almost impossible and moves data to where it is in greatest demand.
		Freenet, is a peer-to-peer network application that permits the publication, replication, and retrieval of data while protecting the anonymity of both authors and readers.
		Freenet operates as a network of identical nodes which collectively pool their storage space to store data files, and co-operate to route requests to the most likely physical location of data.

		Freenet is a 501c3 non-profit corporation whose goal is the development of free software that allows users to publish and obtain information on the Internet without fear of censorship.
		Initially Freenet 0.7 will be a "pure darknet" model, in that all connections must be trusted, however future versions will permit a mixed opennet/darknet approach where the user can opt to allow untrusted connections to their node, which will improve connectivity and convenience at the expense of security.
		One of Freenet's weaknesses in terms of its usefulness in a hostile environment, is that while its goal is to make it very difficult to determine who is publishing and reading what, it doesn't make it all that difficult to determine who is running a Freenet node.

		Freenet project founder Ian Clarke recognises the implications: "One of the characteristics of Freenet is that it allows the distribution of information without any fear of censorship or retribution.
		Freenet should be able to cope with any such surge in popularity because it automatically makes more copies of popular files.
		Freenet's developers are not fighting writs as yet, but there is no doubt that the music industry is prepared to defend its business.

	GrepLaw \| Ian Clarke on Freenet and his Decision to Leave the USA
		Freenet is also actively used in other countries, including the United States, to distribute censored information such as the Church of Scientology "Operating Thetan" documents.
		Freenet is currently much slower than the world wide web, and it will never be able to do some of the things the WWW can do - such as interact with the user.
		Having said that, Freenet is a pretty effective and scalable way to distribute large files and it is immune to "denial of service" attacks, so it is certainly useful beyond its primary goal of permitting anonymous information distribution.

	Free, anonymous information on the anarchists' Net \| CNET News.com
		Clarke and a growing group of allied programmers are creating a kind of parallel Internet called "Freenet," where censorship is impossible, surfers are anonymous, and content is moved and hosted automatically to points near the people who want it.
		Freenet is the latest entry, and perhaps the most ambitious, in a field of new "distributed" network services that are making themselves felt far beyond the technology community.
		Others say Freenet, if it is able to get out of its early stages, could be the final nail in the coffin for organizations trying to prevent online piracy.

		He acknowledges that Freenet will inevitably also be used by the Web's "seedier elements" to distribute other kinds of outlawed content -- potentially including child pornography or racist propaganda.
		Freenet's distributed design means that a network participant could unknowingly store fragments of illegal or offensive content on their computer, in encrypted form.
		Freenet's developer fans are creating a number of surprising applications for the software, including one designed to enable FM-quality radio broadcasting over its network.

	Salon.com Technology \| Information just wants to be Freenet
		The reason it's so powerful is that it takes data onto the network, it migrates the data toward demand and it mirrors that data so that it enables high-bandwidth data to move efficiently through the system.
		With Freenet, someone says, "Hey, does anybody have it?" and the information is sent to that person once.
		We have not only the creative architect and founder of Freenet, we also have a lot of the development team who are familiar with the environment.

	Debian -- freenet-unstable (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Freenet is a decentralised network of nodes designed to allow for efficient distribution of information over the Internet.
		Freenet's goals are resilience to censorship, and anonymity for producers and consumers of information through plausible denyability.
		Although this is a snapshot from the development branch, it is currently your best bet, as the stable 0.3.x cannot access more than 5 percent of Freenet.

	Slashdot \| New "Dark" Freenet Available for Testing
		Freenet is hopefully a good last resort, but the option of a technical last resort should not discourage people from fighting oppression in all of its forms through more conventional political means.
		Freenet is neat, P2P research is phenomenal, darknets are probably the way to go...but boy, it would be nice to have something that is not implemented in Java.
		Freenet has always generated significant publicity at pretty early stages of development, and while it has disadvantages, on the whole I think it has been beneficial, it attracts developers (at a time when they can still make a real difference), not to mention donations, which we really need right now.

	Slashdot \| SQL Over FreeNet
		I think in the end the popularity system of Freenet will cause enjoyable content to be unfindable for a minority of people, of which I have little doubt I shall be a part.
		I would also propose that a Freenet user would have the one-time ability (if it could be made unabuseable that is), to give up his rating priviledges to mark a file as permanent and never to be deleted.
		Freenet is doing some really amazing things along the lines of creating an alternate network of information that evades censorship and promotes personal anonymity and security.

	OpenP2P.com -- What's on Freenet?
		I just spent some time discovering what's on Freenet, the peer-to-peer system that makes it possible to publish data anonymously and in such a way that it effectively cannot be removed.
		But if we were to indulge ourselves and construct a demographic of the average Freenet user from Freenet content, he'd be a crypto-anarchist Perl hacker with a taste for the classics of literature, political screeds, 1980s pop music, Adobe software, and lots of porn.
		Note that while Freenet music is definitely overwhelmingly rock, these by-key statistics will tend to over-report rock compared to, say, classical music, since the average rock album has more tracks than the average classical album.

	The Freenet Project - download - beginner
		Freenet 0.7 is different to most other P2P networks in that, to protect your security, you only connect directly to other people you trust, but through them you gain access to the entire Freenet network.
		When you first start Freenet 0.7 your node will not know any other nodes on the network, you need to connect to other nodes - at least three.
		Freenet provides now an update-over-freenet mechanism ; We recommend people to use it in favour of the updating scripts.
