[freenet-support] please remove me from your mailing list.
I no longer use freenet, I don't want to receive any more emails that have nothing of interest to me. Thank you for your co-operation. -- next part -- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL: <https://emu.freenetproject.org/pipermail/support/attachments/20090101/f84a9d70/attachment.html>

The IP addresses that you see are all from people that don't need to hide the
fact that they run Freenet. If they needed to keep their nodes secret, they
would use Darknet and you wouldn't see their IP's.

It is possible to tell who is running Freenet, as long as they use Opennet
('connections to Strangers).
If they use only Darknet ('connections to Friends'), telling who is running a
node is much more difficult.
Also, it is theoretically possible for your peers to use correlation attacks to
figure out what you download and upload.
Actually proving anything would be very difficult, but some good guesses are
possible, and in some cases courts can accept good guesses as 'evidence'. Yes,
in the West too. The 'formerly free' world.
Your only defense is to run a pure darknet node and only connect to people that
you know and trust, friends that you -know- they wouldn't try to spy on you
(but they could still be threatened, blackmailed, tortured)

You suppose wrong. Freenet IS alpha software, and if you bet your life or
freedom on Freenet you pretty much deserve to get killed or imprisoned.
Of course, Freenete is 'less insecure' than the 'regular' web, but you still
need to be very, very careful, especially if your opponent has time, money and
resources -and- they would invest them to get you (in other words, the best
defense is still not being worth the hassle)
