The free freighter will come after you have warped a few times. You will be put in a firefight to defend a freighter, once you defeat all the bad guys you will get a message from the captain to board the ship and he will give you the freighter. Be careful not to shoot near the freighter. Freighters have sections on it that hold materials and turrets for defense. If it thinks you are being aggressive, you will have and endless supply of sentinel ships coming to take you down. Find the closest planet or space station to escape, because they will not stop coming at you.
