i am unsure about that.

the (only) problem i see is, that if someone wants to scam a specific person he might to able to buy (or bribe) a person who is on the trust list of his target.
not sure how big the problem is though: the scammer has to be aware that its possible that those people know each other.

what do you think?

Trust lists have to be public so there is accountability within DefaultTrust. Outside of that its also important to know who may be a good addition into DefaultTrust. I'm not sure I understand your comments about bribing people so I won't comment on that.

good points. imho you are right... sounds like i should go code some tool to make that list browsable.

my point about bribing was only that i may contact and bribe a user if i want his account.
eg some time ago (dont know if i still am) i was on trustlist of ABitNut. someone who wants to scam him could try to bribe me to sell my account.
