This is generally true, but I do recall periods where this was not true for freenode. (Some kind of spambot problem, so only registered users who authenticated during the connection process (instead of thru nickserv) could logon iirc.)
For what its worth, considering this has gone far off-topic, I don't believe Freenode itself has ever had mandatory registration.
Some channels including #euphoria itself, maybe, but #euphoria has also at times banned large swaths of Europe for no reason.
Channel operators can set a "registered nicks only" on a per-channel basis. Some nets banned all of AOL for a time, at least one banned all of Malaysia.
