[freenet-support] Guardian article on Freenet
Might be of interest to some on the list. Apologies if considered off topic. The dark side of the internet In the 'deep web', Freenet software allows users complete anonymity as they share viruses, criminal contacts and child pornography; http://www.guardian.co.uk/technology/2009/nov/26/dark-side-internet-freenet?showallcomments=true#end-of-comments There is a comment thread if anyone feels freenet or its users are being misrepresented ;-) M! ___ Support mailing list Support@freenetproject.org http://news.gmane.org/gmane.network.freenet.support Unsubscribe at http://emu.freenetproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/support Or mailto:support-requ...@freenetproject.org?subject=unsubscribe
Re: [freenet-support] Related topic (Privacy): Britain wants to track all telecom usage
It's shocking stuff. Monitor all emails and texts! Even in East Germany twenty years ago the Stasi did not routine look through all letters. Celebrate the fall of the Berlin Wall this week and then have a look around and see how far we have really come. M! I thought quite a few people on this list might be interested in this story, regarding privacy on networks. Maybe it will lead to more people using Freenet, or maybe it will lead to increased legal pressure on Freenet users. http://spectrum.ieee.org/blog/computing/it/riskfactor/british-government-we-want-access-to-your-every-phone-call-email-and-web-search The second paragraph gives the long and short of it. The British government has decided to go ahead with its plans under what it calls the Intercept Modernisation Programme to force every telecommunication company and Internet service provider to keep a record of all of its customers' personal communications, showing who they have contacted, when and where, as well as the web sites they have visited, according to the London Telegraph and various other British papers. -Brian -- Feel free to contact me using PGP Encryption: Key Id: 0x3AA70848 Available from: http://keys.gnupg.net ___ Support mailing list Support@freenetproject.org http://news.gmane.org/gmane.network.freenet.support Unsubscribe at http://emu.freenetproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/support Or mailto:support-requ...@freenetproject.org?subject=unsubscribe ___ Support mailing list Support@freenetproject.org http://news.gmane.org/gmane.network.freenet.support Unsubscribe at http://emu.freenetproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/support Or mailto:support-requ...@freenetproject.org?subject=unsubscribe
Re: [freenet-support] Piracy will not be tolerated
I'd also ask why it is physically based in the UK which is undoubtedly the western country most repressive of internet use. Only yesterday the 'interception modernatization programme' which would attempt to record all emails was dropped for 'tecnhical' reasons: http://www.guardian.co.uk/uk/2009/nov/09/home-office-plan-data-storage M! First, I appreciate that Matthew had to ban Toni. Open discussion of Freenet documents is just plain stupid, for obvious reasons. Second, I'm sure that Freenet and this list are already illegal in many countries. If Freenet ever becomes popular, it will undoubtedly become illegal everywhere, more or less. With any luck, Freenet will be fully anonymous and secure by then. Even now, this support list could be hosted anonymously and securely at reasonable cost. And BTW, why is Freenet incorporated in the USA, and not somewhere with lower legal and political risks? VolodyA!

I hope that one day you will not ban all of us just because some US court would say that using freenet is illegal... Actually somebody will (whether or not it will be Matthew Toseland or not i don't know). Since i'm sure that if Freenet will become illegal, this e-mail list will have to shut down, thus de-facto banning everybody from it. -- Best regards, Ichi mailto:i...@xerobank.net ___ Support mailing list Support@freenetproject.org http://news.gmane.org/gmane.network.freenet.support Unsubscribe at http://emu.freenetproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/support Or mailto:support-requ...@freenetproject.org?subject=unsubscribe ___ Support mailing list Support@freenetproject.org http://news.gmane.org/gmane.network.freenet.support Unsubscribe at http://emu.freenetproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/support Or mailto:support-requ...@freenetproject.org?subject=unsubscribe
Re: [freenet-support] Remove all identifying content from posted files (especially audio)
I'd love to know about this too! I understand the basic architecture of Freenet and how it protects contributors, but I'm concerned that the files themselves might contain identifying information about the source of the file. In particular, for audio files such as MP3, Ogg Vorbis, and Flac. Does anyone have any information on making sure there are no fingerprints left on these files when posting?

Re: [freenet-support] Freenet funding status
I would consider donating if there was a Freenet version that installs reliably on Vista. As yet I have not managed a successful install. Best, Mihail Hey all, As you can see looking at the website, the project can afford to pay for Matthew for only another 25 days. As many of you are aware, Matthew's contribution to development is fundamental, and it would be a serious blow to the project if we could no-longer pay him. I know times are tough, but if you can spare anything I'd ask that you visit our donation page at http://freenetproject.org/donate.html, and contribute whatever you can. Please also forward this message on to any other relevant forums (such as on-Freenet message boards).

Re: [freenet-support] Freenet funding status
I went through it on the list and people said back, 'yeah, there are lots of problems running Freenet on Vista but a new Vista friendly version is coming soon'. Have you filed a bug report describing the problem in detail? Ian.

Re: [freenet-support] Mr. T needs advice
I have also posted problems about trying to get Freenet installed on Vista. Looking forward to the new version and getting going ...

Although I am not that computer illiterate, I am new to Freenet and its language, so I request a measure of patience with me. My computer is a duo core, 31/2 gigs of RAM and a 500 gig hard drive. I am connected via a Lynksis router to cable Internet. After installing Freenet 7, my browser (IE) opened up advising me to change browsers, and there and then I supposed I was connected; then I did some searching, getting some results, but because I do not know how to download yet, I shut it off. When I tried to start again using the Start Freenet icon on my desktop, I got the following response: System error 5 has occurred Access is denied Press any key to continue You are using Vista. Freenet, like hundreds of other applications, has some problems on Vista. A new installer will be released in the not too distant future that will avoid this. I thought then that my router needs some configuration, but, since I am not sure I thought I get some advice.
