On the mention "original freenet"

In the late 1980s early 1990s, FreeNet was not (just) a web domain name.

Freenet was decentralized idea of how the public (me) could get on the internet without already being a member of a privileged institution (or rich and sophisticated).

I believe the idea of what the freenet was prior to becoming a brandname is worthy of being remembered.

I'm not much of a tube clicker here, so apologies if this is redundant with the video.
