> So Opennet allows law enforcement to connect to your Freenet potentially and thus analyze your traffic.

Further, it should be clarified that this is not a problem specific to Freenet:

ANY network which tries to be anonymous will suffer from the so-called "sybil" attack if it connects to random strangers:

If an attacker runs e.g. 100 000 machines on a network of only 1000 actual users then the probability that a single user only has connections to them is very high.

And anonymization must rely upon redirecting traffic across multiple peers - but it cannot if all peers belong to the attacker.

To my understanding Tor addresses this problem by heuristics, e.g. closely monitoring important, big machines in their network, trying to ensure they are in fact distinct entities - but that is really just guesswork, not hard mathematical security.

If Tor wanted to be truly secure it would have to add a darknet mode as well.
