# Freenet rocks!
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Freenet is a content-based anonymous network, this means, that unlike
|
||
|
|
tor, it is based only in content rather than services, you don't
|
||
|
|
need. a webserver to host a website in freenet. You only have to
|
||
|
|
insert it.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Then, when you have that website uploaded in freenet, you'll be
|
||
|
|
seeding it, other people will visit and they'll become seeders as
|
||
|
|
well! So you can turn off your computer, and the website will be still
|
||
|
|
accessible!
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Any content you download will be kept in the datastore, a encrypted
|
||
|
|
file that has every content you've visited in freenet. This file is
|
||
|
|
encrypted and can be only decrypted with the keys. There are 4 types
|
||
|
|
of keys but the most important are:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* SSK: Signed Subspace Keys. For content that will change, like a website
|
||
|
|
* USK: Updateable Subspace Keys. Useful for getting the latest version of a SSK key
|
||
|
|
* CHK: Content Hash Keys, Used for static content, such as pdfs, images...

This is a freenet URL: <http://127.0.0.1:8888/USK@wA57L-2IJYwx6wOrLyKEpS6NHXRrSUXNWJNfu9T5gc4,twOe8gGJw~8~p-ICxazYTVduvS4RJZfiLUKRmRzo3so,AQACAAE/qorg/34/>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
It has it scheme: http://FPROXYADDRESS:/KEYTYPE@DECRYPTIONKEY/DOCUMENT/VERSION/
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Notice how freenet has "versions" this in freesites are some kind of
|
||
|
|
wayback machine. You can go to *any* version of a freesite by
|
||
|
|
modifying the URL, for example: http://127.0.0.1:8888/SSK@wA57L-2IJYwx6wOrLyKEpS6NHXRrSUXNWJNfu9T5gc4,twOe8gGJw~8~p-ICxazYTVduvS4RJZfiLUKRmRzo3so,AQACAAE/qorg-1/
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
That will take you to the first version of my freesite
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
There are some plugins to Freenet, like Frost or Sore, which enables
|
||
|
|
social media over freenet.
