Idea #9407: Add Freenet to the repository

Description

Freenet is a decentralized, censorship-resistant distributed data store. Freenet aims to provide freedom of speech through a peer-to-peer network with strong protection of anonymity.
Freenet works by pooling the contributed bandwidth and storage space of member computers to allow users to anonymously publish or retrieve various kinds of information.
It can be thought of as a large storage device which uses key based routing similar to a distributed hash table to locate peers' data.

I agree with this. I used freenet in the past, but then they changed entirely to darknets, which weren't much use to me.

But I think they have changed it again.. so +1

I mean, freenet I simply used because its like free persistant storage.. Forget the anonymity properties.

And you cant really DDOS it.
