The means of security is * not * knowing where the data is stored, in 
addition to the requester of the information being masked.

If you analyze traffic flow through enough nodes at various points,
you have a reasonably good map of the network. ( Port scanners and
sniffers are a dime a dozen for any operating system. )

* IF * input or retrival of information through freenet is a security hazard 
- then what is the purpose of freenet again ?
