Why can't Freenet store data permenantly?

Because we can't find a way to do this without compromizing Freenet's other goals. For example, people often suggest that someone's node could just never drop data they want to cache permenantly. This, however, won't work because even if the data is still available on their node, there is no way to ensure that requests for that data will be routed to that node.

We have considered many other ways that Freenet could store data permenantly, but they either won't work, or compromize Freenet's core goals of anonymity, and scalability.
