What is Freenet?
Freenet is free software which lets you
publish and obtain information on the Internet without fear of
censorship. To achieve this freedom, the network is entirely
decentralized and publishers and consumers of information are anonymous.
Without anonymity there can never be true freedom of speech, and without
decentralization the network will be vulnerable to attack.Communications by Freenet nodes are encrypted and are
"routed-through" other nodes to make it extremely difficult to determine
who is requesting the information and what its content is.Users contribute to the network by giving bandwidth and a portion of
their hard drive (called the "data store") for storing files. Unlike
other peer-to-peer file sharing networks, Freenet does not let the user
control what is stored in the data store. Instead, files are kept or
deleted depending on how popular they are, with the least popular being
discarded to make way for newer or more popular content. Files in the
data store are encrypted to reduce the likelihood of prosecution by
persons wishing to censor Freenet content.The network can be used in a number of different ways and isn't
restricted to just sharing files like other peer-to-peer networks. It
acts more like an Internet within an Internet. For example Freenet can
be used for:
Unlike many cutting edge projects, Freenet long ago escaped the science
lab, it has been downloaded by over 2 million users since the project
started, and it is used for the distribution of censored information all
over the world including countries such as China and the Middle East. Ideas
and concepts pioneered in Freenet have had a significant impact in the
academic world. Our 2000 paper "Freenet: A Distributed Anonymous
Information Storage and Retrieval System" was the most cited computer
science paper of 2000 according to Citeseer, and
Freenet has also inspired papers in the worlds of law and philosophy.
Ian Clarke, Freenet's creator and project coordinator, was selected as
one of the top 100 innovators of 2003 by MIT's Technology Review
magazine. - Publishing websites or 'freesites'
