Yes, a darknet of peers located on the same LAN (for bandwidth reasons). Can Freenet be configured to allow only pushing/pulling from friends (and not from friends of friends). I understand that the current Freenet paradigm is setup in such a way that a node cannot tell if a friend was the origin of the data or if he is just caching it so I am curious if such a setup is possible.
