Freenet offers information to the Internet without showing who added the information to it. The source of the data is not recognizable. Each Freenet server offer the data for its users and fetches the information from other Freenet servers. You can activate Freenet at your Gibraltar firewall to participate in this global information pool.
ATTENTION: Freenet needs a high amount of RAM space. You can use Freenet only if your Gibraltar firewall has more than 256 MB RAM. Additionally you should offer some GB of your harddisk for storing Freenet data.
