- it splits data into chunks, encrypts it end to end
→ same as Freenet.
- uses a Kademlia DHT which removes the IP addresses after the first hop so no one can find all the nodes
→ same for Freenet, except that Freenet has many additional privacy protections in the protocol and uses node-locations on a ring like Chord, but with an inferred small word structure that allows efficient routing without the need to be able to connect to anyone but your direct peers.
- has consensus about the files and their evolution
→ Freenet has signed, user-controlled keyspaces, so no consensus is needed. Lifetime is given by access (what people access is kept alive) without actually having to track accesses, which is much safer for privacy than a consensus algorithm.
