It's "censorship-free" in the sense that a nation-state can't effectively block their citizens from using Lantern.
So, it's a censorship-free centralized distribution system, as opposed to a censorship-proof decentralized publishing system like Freenet.
Call it "for-the-time-being-supposedly-censorship-free", and I might agree.
And it's centralized, so as soon as the central authority (the satellites) are compromised, the whole system is owned.
Exactly.
IMO this is a neat first step -- it's not the whole way, but it's getting there. Now we just need Freenet or similar on decentralized microsats.
This would be interesting, along with some mesh networks, the FFDN (and similar initiatives), and some free spectrum maybe. -- Pozdr rysiek
