Freenet is a large-scale peer-to-peer network which pools the power
|
|
of member computers around the world to create a massive virtual
|
|
information store open to anyone to freely publish or view information
|
|
of all kinds. Freenet is:
|
|
|
|
Highly survivable: All internal processes are completely anonymized
|
|
and decentralized across the global network, making it virtually
|
|
impossible for an attacker to destroy information or take control
|
|
of the system.
|
|
|
|
Private: Freenet makes it extremely difficult for anyone to spy on
|
|
the information that you are viewing, publishing, or storing.
|
|
|
|
Secure: Information stored in Freenet is protected by strong
|
|
cryptography against malicious tampering or counterfeiting.
|
|
|
|
Efficient: Freenet dynamically replicates and relocates information
|
|
in response to demand to provide efficient service and minimal
|
|
bandwidth usage regardless of load. Significantly, Freenet generally
|
|
requires log(n) time to retrieve a piece of information in a network
|
|
of size n.
