Freenet 0.5.2 Released

FurbyXL writes "With the RIAA roaring to grab peer-to-peer users by their IP addresses, Freenet - fully anonymized production and consumption of content - is gaining renewed attention. Articles in New Scientist, ZDNet UK, Wired and CNET (and here) set a somewhat typical context for Freenets major release 0.52. Significant performance improvements through NIO-based messaging, probabilistic caching etc. should provide increased rest to Chinese dissidents, but may finally wake-up the RIAA's Matt Oppenheim..." The announcement on the Freenet home page lists several improvements found in the new version: "a new NIO technology that brings improved performance using less CPU and system resources," "Individual nodes are now more efficient," "the speed and routing of the entire network have significantly improved," probabilistic caching, user interface improvements, and more.

    This is old news. I read about it after hacking into their webserver an hour ago. Once again, Slashdot isn't on top of things.

    This is the same scenario as the firing squad -- everyone knows that one gun contains a blank, but noone knows which one it is... therefore each person has a lingering hope that they were the one with the blank.

    It's called "How to Execute with a Clear Conscience: Hey, You Just Might Not Have Done it!"

    We also drive cars that that support the oil regime.

    We all wear shoes that are made with slave labor in Malaysia. (Nike is just better at hiding that fact now)

    We are at war right now because the presidentiary-elect has deemed it so. Thousands slaughtered for false WMD's. Or Oil. Or because.

    Do you fertilize your yard with chemicals? Have you recycled 100% everything you could? Do you buy products tested on animals? Do you live in a city of cement that has wiped away the habitat? Do you own wood furniture that came from a rain forrest? Do you live in a country that herded the natives to the casinos? Have you ever kept your mouth shut instead of defending a racial joke?

    We all do things that help promote the problem. However, through different levels of rationalization we live with it. Supporting FreeNet is not supporting the kiddie porn scene. The real scenes are a tight knit group of crazies with their own system of trading pictures, stories, movies, get-togethers, etc.
