Re: [freenet-support] Too much Route not found despite of DMZ

Sometimes, the Data not found comes up instead, as annoying as the other. I have ADSL 512/256 and 512 MB of memory. Service pack 2 i installed. Everything is very slow despite of that my CPU is Pentium 4 2.4 GHz Even the README-file that should be reachable from the serverlet isn't available!! (Data not found) This is very annoying and since Freenet was intended to exterminate censorship, it's totally meaningless as long theese errors are there. RNF and DNF ARE to be considered as censorship, even if they depend om bugs and other things! Please help me or fix this if that are bugs! Or are freenet currently being taken down by hackers? It's because you've just installed it. Give it some time and most RNF will go away. -- === Contact details: Alt e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ICQ: 253627744 Frost: VolodyA!

[freenet-support] Zero Point Seven
I know that you probably hate people asking the same questions over and over again, i have been reading these discussions and explanations for quite some time, but can't find an answers to the questions that interests me. Let's say I trust John and Jill. I create my own litte darknet to distribute highly contravercial vegan recepies, which happen to be illegal in my hypothetical meat-eaters-only country. Then John, decides to invite Jason into the darknet... and Jason is an undercover meat-eater. Will Jason be able to learn about my vegan habbits? If not (i.e. he will only be connected to John) then John will be the only point of entry for anything Jason wants to insert/retrieve from the darknet, is that correct? You have also mentioned about joining two different darknets together. Do you mean that if Jason in our situation is a member of a vegetarian (rather than vegan) darknet then vegetarian darknetters will be able to receive the content of vegan darnet? Can that be stopped? (ie Can Jason say, Yes, i'm a part of two darknets, but i don't want any crosspolination between the two). How easy is it to run opennet and darknet at the same time? Will that require two separate nodes running or can i run one nodes connecting to both nets? How easy would it be to set up a gateway between a darknet and an opennet? Well i think this is about all. - Volodya -- === Contact details: Alt e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ICQ: 253627744 Frost: VolodyA! V [EMAIL PROTECTED] pm4pigs: VolodyA!

I'm getting lost once again. First i don't understand why that is not the point, since if you simply not cache the data if it was requested locally, then if it somehow can be proven that your node has requested the block, and it is not in the datastore, then you were the requester; that compromises anonymity, not increases it.
