"Web of Trust" is problematic for those who chose pseudonymity. Over the years, I've come to trust several pseudonyms based on interactions via discussion forums and email, signed documents and software, apparent integrity, and so on. Nobody except me knows mirimir's true name, but everyone can judge me by what I've said and done.
