    I’ve heard it said they forced Freenet to stop focusing on anonymization, which caused a fork and name change of the original Freenet to Hyphanet.

          Site doesn’t load. Here’s a link to the article

          https://www.hyphanet.org/freenet-renamed-to-hyphanet.html

          But it doesn’t say anything about futo

            Here’s the toot:

            @light The funding by FUTO sadly led to the forced renaming: https://www.hyphanet.org/freenet-renamed-to-hyphanet.html

            That new project does not have privacy as a goal.

            We (Hyphanet) are fully volunteer-driven now. #Hyphanet has been working pretty well for the past two decades and is continuing to move forward. Features:

            • websites
            • Microblog (Sone)
            • Chat (FLIP: IRC server)
            • Forums (FMS)
            • decentralized database

              There is nothing there about FUTO forcing them to stop focusing on anonymization. I’d be careful to draw such conjecture. Besides, this is one reductive take from one party of a contentious split.
