That seems a little bit unclear because it implies that you can find friends through the Friends page. If we're going to tell people to get some friends, we should provide some guidance as to how to do so. We could potentially suggest, "here's where some freenet people hang out", although that might be easy to infiltrate? On the other hand if no one ever meets any friends, then there won't be a darknet to infiltrate in the first place. > Perhaps on the friends page we should have some simple guidelines > about what constitutes a "friend". Yes - as above, and also emphasize that you should talk to the person and satisfy yourself that they're bona fide, rather than following the usual social networking model of clicking immediately on anyone who requests you as a friend. theo
