    Freenet works until the usage of freenet is blanketly outlawed. Freenet fails with the totalitarian argument : "you wouldn't be using encryption if you didn't have anything to hide".

    This not only encrypt the content, but also maskarades as an innocent-looking, 100% normal, everyday happening communication.
