Re: [Freenet-dev] Don't Talk To Strangers

[Dev Random]

It would seem that the scheme proposed (limiting connections to
a few other nodes) doesn't really help in a totalitarian country.
The government can set up a tap (or one could be already active, a la
Carnivore) and discover that an "unauthorized" protocol is being run.
Even the fact that you are sending out more than HTTP GET requests could
be grounds for an in-depth investigation.

If you want to solve this, you have to get into steganography.  There is
no other way to look innocent over a public network.  

In any case, I think this is beyond the scope of the current Freenet.
It should probably be a separate project/library that Freenet can use as
a communication layer.
