This is a fundamental flaw with the Freenet network,
it only carries Freenet data.  I2P on the other hand,
like the internet itself, can carry anything.  To
elaborate, Freenet has additional baggage that I2P
does not; mainly storing and forwarding content and
having a weak encryption scheme for the datastore
where censorship can be automated.
