Generally speaking, you could create a search engine on the new Freenet, based on a decentralized inverted keyword index using reputation for ranking. Such a system would run independently of any government, individual, or organization, even of its creators. Government censorship of such a system would be difficult, due to its decentralization.

Sounds like YaCy?

Same goal, but this would just be one system built on top of Locutus - which could interoperate with others - rather than a standalone system.
