Again, this is why darknet mode was implemented. There are no seednodes
in darknet, only friends you know and trust, and that cannot be
identified. (I believe Freenet 0.7 was intended to be a darknet, and
opennet (i.e. how Freenet 0.5 operates) was only later added to make
things easier for newbies.)
