HI i was wondering how safe freenet is
Very safe, with a whole tonne of caveats and footnotes. (Security is a
constant battle, eternal vigilance, you should have many layers of
security (an encrypted hard-drive perhaps), there will always be a
tradeoff between ease-of-use and security).
and how much hard drive space it takes up?
The actual program is miniscule. But you can devote however much you
want to the global distributed freenet network. The more, the better.
and is it real necessary to leave it on all the time,as i have
Comcast and they have a level cap.
I think it's a lot better to stay connected and keep your node at a low
throttled speed (to stay under your cap), rather than going online
intermittently. Not only will it probably make your freenet surfing
experience faster (not having to re-establish efficient routing links),
but you'll be helping the data-retention of the network. Data is split
and shared across the network, so imagine that your node was the only
one that had a chunk of some important piece of information :).
