This is related to the previous question. We have done everything we can to make it extremely difficult for any sane legal system to justify punishing someone for running a Freenet node, and there is little precedent for such action in today's developed countries. You can't know what your node is doing, and many legal systems recognise the importance of freedom of speech, which is Freenet's core goal. Having said that, there is risk in doing anything that your government might not agree with, you should make an informed decision as to whether to take that risk.

There is no way for you to find out what information is being stored on your computer when you run a Freenet node, and there is a possibility that some of it may be disagreeable to you. Remember that the true test of someone who claims to believe in Freedom of Speech is whether they tolerate speech which they disagree with, or even find disgusting. If this is not acceptable to you, you should not run a Freenet node.
