I've mentioned freenet to them. They're on the right side on a whole lot of issues involving free speach on the net. My $0.02: someone posted it inside freenet "Freenet needs pron". Look at the file sharing networks. You type in just about anything and you get pron in the search results. Companies put out ads sometimes labeling them as other things. My guess is that somewhere out there, there are bunch of P2P servers with nothing but short clips of pron telling you to buy the stuff from a website. The problem is for them as soon as people realize it's an ad they often delete it. So they still have to probably upload a good fraction of the ads. In freenet they won't have this problem: as long as it gets looked at it will stay in cache. Maybe we can get some pron company to setup a pron freesite with clips of thier crap and run a couple nodes. Maybe they'd even donate some money. They'd have no "image" problems to worry about. The Pron industry is one of the most profitable things to come out of the internet revolution. They were first with streaming video and the like. Maybe they'll want to be first here too. Question: will these big pron inserting nodes help or hurt freenet's fragile ecosystem? __________________________________________________________________ Gesendet von Yahoo!
