Dear Toad et al, I am a fan of freenet and its ideals, but the vulnerability to local evesdropping now seems to me to be a BIG flaw, given the Orwellian environment.
I read somewhere that Toad said it is an aim to eventually encrypt all traffic between nodes. I'm sure this has been thought of before, but is there any reason at all why nodes or a growing subset of nodes can't simply each point their traffic through Stunnel or something similar so that internode traffic is SSL-encrypted with Open SSL? It's free and the Stunnel developer may even like the idea. http://www.stunnel.org/ http://stunnel.mirt.net/news.html http://www.freebsddiary.org/stunnel-v4-man.html http://www-106.ibm.com/developerworks/security/library/s-stun.html (I've cross-posted this to the developed list).
