The properties of Freenet you describe are extremely intriguing.
However, I'm asking about your description of Tor and I2P
>However as they're both communication networks they do not provide censorship-resistance. The endpoints you're connecting to are central servers and can be taken down.
This is technically incoherent, and I'm not sure what you mean by it.
As far as I'm aware, at no point does your TCP traffic from your tor client connect to a 'central server'. I'm not familiar enough with I2P to comment.
- MrCapybara 6y agoI think they meant servers as in the machine hosting the content you are acessing, such as the machine that hosts HN. Not that every connection goes through a central server, but your content is hosted on a central server, as opposed to FreeNet where your content is distributed and so can't be taken down like a server can.
- LMYahooTFY 6y agoI see, it took a moment to understand what they were describing as I'm not familiar with Freenet, but this makes it much more clear.
