Just having a Freenet connection does not get a warrant — though there are researchers who use some fishy statistics which may be reason not to run a very fast node in the US (because running a fast node provably causes false positives in their statistics).

For some more details, see https://freenetproject.org/the-discredited-levine-2017-appro... and the links therein.

I think you might overestimate how easy it is to get a search warrant, paticularly in the US. This isnt the standard for arrest, let alone conviction. A cop saying "the machine regularly connected to a suspect network" is more than enough for many judges/magistrates... most of which dont know an IP from an IPA.

Kyle Rittenhouse trial, the lawyer pinch zooming on an photo gallery on an iPhone and arguing its legit is all you need to know

It's fascinating how bipartisan this issue is and how little people still seem to care.
