WoT's are interesting and very useful, but do require rigorous adherence to the trust model
I don't think freenet's web of trust is its most important feature though. I don't know how well it works, and technically it isn't complicated. On the other hand freenet is an actual peer to peer system, unlike tor, and it's designed as a distributed storage. Any user serves any part of any stored file. All users are 'criminals' who 'distribute' anything that govcorp wants to censor.
and assertion levels, and are hard to quantify beyond various degrees of separation, entire regions of trust space can become corrupted, same as in real world.
