PrintKey checks a keyindex obtained from somewhere (or generated yourself)
against your store. Sure, key names don't mean anything, but they may be
a hint to the content. And if the Freenet-server can get at the data,
someone els can, to.

How come your freenet_node works? If the store is encrypted, the node
shouldn't be able to read anything. I hope you see the point. As long
as the node can get automatically to your data, someone else can, too.
E.g. the feds busting in your door ;)
