Following three years of development, the Freenet Project has announced the release of Freenet 0.70. As the project site notes, "Freenet is software designed to allow the free exchange of information over the Internet without fear of censorship, or reprisal. To achieve this Freenet makes it very difficult for adversaries to reveal the identity, either of the person publishing, or downloading content." Somewhat like proxy servers work, Freenet, which is fully open source, can allow anyone to post information anonymously online. Is this good news for people in censorship-heavy parts of the world?
