What is FreeNet?
“The Freenet project aims to create a client that implements the protocol described in Ian Clarke’s paper ‘A Distributed Decentralised Information Storage and Retrieval System’. Running this client would allow anyone to join a system called the ‘Freenet’ that will allow thoughts and ideas to be published and read without fear of censorship of any kind. The client is being written using the Java programming language. Please read Ian Clarke’s paper for more information.”
