Freenet is also based on middle-out compression.

No. Trying to push 30TB into Freenet will be interpreted as an attack on the network by other peers and they'll disconnect from your peer.

Freenet is better viewed as a communication medium than a storage medium. Data is prioritized according to demand, somewhat like an LRU cache. You can't upload 30TB and expect the network to preserve it for you.

On liability, running a Freenet peer is more like running network infrastructure that automatically routes and caches other people's traffic than intentionally publishing it. US law explicitly recognizes this distinction in the DMCA's provisions for transitory network communications and system caching. We discuss this in more detail in the FAQ.

You obviously haven't tried Freenet. You can join our room on River and you'll see no spam, no fraud, no hate speech, none of that.

Decentralized doesn't mean unmoderated. Systems built on Freenet can be moderated however their creators and communities want. River is moderated.

The difference is that nobody running one service gets to decide what everyone else is allowed to run.

Thanks for your questions, Freenet caches data but it isn’t meant to be a long-term storage network. It’s better to think of it as a communication system. Data persists as long as at least one node remains subscribed to it. If nobody subscribes (including the author), it will eventually disappear from the network. So yes, if only your node subscribes then the data will only exist there and won’t be available when your machine is offline. But if other nodes subscribe it will be replicated automatically and remain available even if your node goes offline.

Not from 2023, the linked video is from last month. https://www.youtube.com/watch?...

In the long run, we would be getting that supply from the Moon or asteroids. This initial step is needed though, but I don't see it being profitable.

This is only because Google Play does not exist in China, and there is no authentic Microsoft Authenticator app for Android.

In the US maybe. In Greece 40 hours plus a very small amount of overtime is allowed. (150 hours a year of overtime (+2.6 hours a week on average)) is the absolute max allowed by law.

Yeah, its pretty impossible to promise that prices will never go up. Inflation happens.

That said, their guarantee to pay your last month is nice, but their advertising certainly didn't make clear what they were promising.

As others said, it depends on if you have home charging or not.
If you can charge at home, EVs are great for commuting, it does require some additional planning for long trips, but it's getting much better.
Also cost to charge at home is 1/3rd or less than cost for gas. Cost to supercharge is often very similar to the cost for gas, sometime even more than gas.

Rentals are generally for people away from home, so EVs for the rental market mostly doesn't make sense right now.

Driving a rental EV right now as main EV is in the body shop. coincidentally. But I'm not away from home.

I'd argue it should go the other way around.
If you want to keep weed criminalized, you need this data to prove there is an actual harm. They haven't proved it yet.

They are only charging for real world IPv4 addresses. Internal non routable IPv4 addresses will still be free.
  Honestly, that's fine, I don't need many real internet addressable addresses anyways.
Private IPv4 addresses 192.168.x.x, etc, will be free, likely forever.
Even for these cloud database type systems, I'm not sure why you need a routeable address..

The new Freenet is written in Rust.
