@techdisk Let me warn you about this: You have no control over what Freenet stores on your system, and you will become a node, so your system will kinda do basic P2P-like stuff to transfer popular files as well. The first week Freenet will be extremely slow and fail often, as it discovers where everyone is on the network (in this way: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/a/ae/Freenet_Request_Sequence_ZP.svg). Many freesites will be hosting content which is either illegal or offensive to you, so do not just follow every link you see if you don't have a description of what it will be like (yes, we're even talking about stuff like child pornography. If you just read before you click you will be fine (like I have been), but please make sure to be careful with clicking stuff). The forums can be interesting, though, I love reading conspiracy theories, but it took me a week before I could seriously use the forum :P
