Title: Can we distrust the default trust?
Post by: PytagoraZ on July 08, 2023, 01:34:03 AM
Excuse me, I have a question that has been bothering me since last night. I don't know where this thought came from

What happens if I distrust the default trust?

Can I add the same person to the untrusted list? does it have any effect?

Yes, nothing, you just distrust it.

It's still has the same effect, distrusting a user means you distrust him/er regardless how many times you put the same username with a tilde.

Default trust are the people whose feedbacks are visible to everyone by default who don't have a trust list. If you distrust default trust, that means you are not trusting feedbacks of them. In general, you won't see any feedback other than you. You will only see the feedback/s which you have left. Look at my trust network when I distrusted DT.

When you do not trust the default trust, this means that you trust your trust list without any interference with the default trust, but this will not change the trust that others see.
In the sense that if you untrust default trust and some DT1/2 member, the negative trust that he left on you will not appear to you, but it will appear to all community and to new users who trust in the default trust by default.
