Chapter 9 at a Glance

This chapter looks at an interesting and evolving technology for totally secure, anonymous publishing of content and explains a form of distributive adaptive storage based on demand.

The public test and developer network of Freenet is used as an platform for discussing the advanced encryption and trust systems that make up a secure network.

  • Concept of Freedom outlines the rationale behind Freenet and the main design goals.

  • How It Works explains the overall functionality in simple terms, and in particular, the unusual and seemingly indirect way in which content is stored and retrieved. This includes how to publish content and a quick look at some of the client software available for Freenet.
