[freenet-support] Freenet 0,5 and 0,7
Evan, You are right - there is a lot of data to show that social networks do expand in the method being said here, but that data is based on known, non-anonymous social networks. In an anonymous network the rule of thumb is trust no one. If an openet is not the solution, neither is posting information with an embeded IP number the solution. I don't know how the openet is hackable, especially if node connections pr paths through nodes change randomly (TOR-like), but with a manually established network it only takes capturing 1 node and the entire freenet is at risk. I would be more inclined to exchange node information with someone if the information were encrypted - private/public key. In an anonymous social network I would be more inclined to expand that network to others because my node information is encrypted. >From: "Evan Daniel" >Reply-To: evand at pobox.com, support at freenetproject.org >To: "urza9814 at gmail.com" >CC: support at freenetproject.org >Subject: Re: [freenet-support] Freenet 0,5 and 0,7 >Date: Sun, 27 Aug 2006 10:06:37 -0400 > >Please justify your assumptions. > >There is a lot of data on social networks that says that is not how >they look.

[freenet-support] Freenet 0,5 and 0,7
I agree. I wouldn't want to be the only connection between 2 networks, or even one of a small few. I simply don't have the bandwidth. Maybe a T1 or T3 could handle it, but not what 90+% of the people using freenet would have to work with. As I follow these threads I begin to see a core group of people that are promoting 0.7 as the way to go. They have ideas about how it will work, but so far I haven't seen convincing evidence to show how it's going to actually do what they say. I understand 0.7 is in it's infancy, but it's really premature and living in an incubator. It's got a long way to go to be able to meet the level of use people are claiming it will have. I was running 0.7, I'm in the process of changing OS on the PC that was running it, but I did not like having to exchange information with someone on IRC. It's the first time I've ever had anything to do with IRC, and though some people are IRC advocates I've never been one. I didn't know the people I was connecting to at all, and the only reason it didn't bother me was because I was simply provide a computer and bandwidth. If I had an agenda, or a real reason to be using freenet, I would never have considered giving out information. I was about as anonymous as if I had posted my IP address on Google for everyone to view. It may be called darknet, but someone forgot to turn off the light. >Yea, but you don't know all the nodes in the network, you just know >the ones your connected to.

Someone exchanges information with them and they in. Or are you saying everyone who joined was tricked into joining Freenet in the first place? I guess you mean there will be all these small darknets of people who are isolated from the rest of the wrold because they don't know anyone they can trust so they will never give out their node information.

[freenet-support] Freenet 0,5 and 0,7
What about a pipe to the 0.5 freenet from 0.7 that allows access to the data? A 1-way street. 0.7 can add data to the 0.7 freenet, but can and to the 0.5 freenet. Only access the data. From what I have gathered, 'inserting' data into freenet is not a quick task. As I see it 0.7 relies on a bunch of people hooking up by sharing node information. I may be a part of a freenet 0.7 network that consists of less than 20 people. Out there somewhere else is another group of people, but that group might be 100 people. Unless someone in the 2 groups makes a connection, shares node information, the 2 groups don't talk to each other. Making matters worse, the only connection they have is through that one shared connection. There is no redundancy.

[freenet-support] Freenet 0,5 and 0,7
I've got a question for the developers. First a couple of comments. I've been watching the thread 0.5 vs 0.7, and although you want to move it somewhere else I welcome it. I brought up 0.7 about 5 days ago. It's been running ever since, I think. I don't monitor the PC that it is on, but I do see activity on the router port for the PC. I didn't much like the idea of asking people to let me access Freenet through them, but I did. I still think that is a good idea to gain initial access to Freenet, but after that it should go find other nodes and establish connections to them. I shouldn't have to always rely on the ones that were on IRC chat at the time I decided to set up the application. That said, here is by question. >From what I've seen here, there is a huge base of Freenet users on 0.5, and a large amount of content. What I fail to understand is why going to version 0.7 all of that userbase and content was dropped. Why there was no way to connect to that Freenet and have access to the users and the content. I've tried to think of an example of some other internet application that made such a radical change that the entire existing base was dropped, and quite frankly I can't come up with one. I've seen application for my PC change so radically the data from the old application had to be converted before it would work, but a migration path was always provided. Developers, why did you do that? I'm new to the Freenet community, and I find it incredulous that years of effort involved with building the Freenet community was abandoned completely. What you have created is a 0.5 and a 0.7 Freenet; both will exist into the future. Just as many security conscious people quit upgrading PGP after 6.52 because source code was no longer readily available, many people will quit upgrading Freenet after 0.5. The difference is with PGP a file encrypted with 6.52 can be read by the newer versions. Freenet has isolated all of it's previous userbase and content.

[freenet-support] Freenet 0.5 or Freenet 0.7
I'm new to Freenet and have been watching the discussion about version 0.5 vs 0.7. I'm not sure what is meant when the 0.5 advocates talk about OpenNet, so could someone enlighten me? I went to the Freenet site hoping to find information related to 0.5, even in the WIKI, but it now only contains information about 0.7. I have dedicate an unmonitored Windows XP Pro machine and 1/3 of my bandwidth to Freenet. I downloaded and installed 0.7, a no brainer, and got it running, but had no nodes to connect to. I had to know another Freenet user, preferably someone I knew and trusted, and manually establish a connection to them, and they in turn had to have established a connection to someone else. Since I know absolutely no other person who is running Freenet I had to learn how to use IRC Chat so I could ask someone if I could connect to them. These connections are my sole points of contact to Freenet. I have no idea how 0.5 handles finding nodes. I don't know who these people are. For all I know they could be individuals living on the other side of town, the country, or the world and they could just as easily be members of MI5, FBI, CIA, or any number of other organizations who monitor and track messages on the internet. I do know their IP address, and they know mine. I tried to find some people who run 24/7 since having a PC dedicated to Freent fulltime, without having someone who is also on 24/7 is not worth much. I have 7 people who have exchanged node information with me. Of the 7 nodes, none are currently connected to me, and if I understand the information, the last to go offline did so more than 14 hours ago. I can wait to see if they come back online, or I can go back into the IRC chat and try to find new nodes. I absolutely hate having to spend time in IRC chat trying to get people to exchange connection information with me. I have better things to spend my time on, and if Freenet wants my machine and bandwidth it's going to have to make sure it stays connected. Freenet should have me put in a single node, any node, even one found on IRC chat, and spider the rest of Freenet establishing and making new connection to ensure it stays connected, or it should do something else to automatically establish connections. At any rate, once that connection is made, Freenet should randomly move my connections throughout the Freenet. I should never have hard and firm connections. By 'floating' my connections throughout Freenet it can honestly be said I don't know who I'm connected to and am simply a node in a collective whole. I'm going to continue to watch the forum and see how things progress. I'll leave my current 0.7 Freenet installed and over the coming weeks decide whether to continue, remove and install 0.5, or just shut down completely. _ FREE pop-up blocking with the new MSN Toolbar - get it now! http://toolbar.msn.click-url.com/go/onm00200415ave/direct/01/

Sorry to be so dumb, but when I put that in the status window and press enter I get a message that says you are not on a channel.

I was going to dedicate a PC and it's resources to Freenet. I installed the application but don't have someone to connect to. I was able to create the URL with my information, but now I have to get on the IRC channel. I got Mirc, but it doesn't have the freenet server listed. I'm never going to use Mirc for anything but to find someone to connect to. So far I just don't have time to learn how to use IRC just to find someone to connect to.
