If the oracle lies but flightstats.com does not, you may be tricked, but in that case its open to the public and you can show that the oracle lied - hence the oracle can go to hell and nobody will use it again.
The problem is that this is anonymous oracle. It can lie once, in case it is caught simply make another wallet, and continue to lie. The flight oracle is run by tonych so there is too much incentive for him not to lie, and he has very much already earned street cred. Most oracles should not be anonymous though, unless you think shady deals.

Great features! Nice developments.
Reminder for people in here, you can use my witness 7ULGTPFB72TOYA67YNGMX2Y445FSTL7O to replace JEDZYC2HMGDBIDQKG3XSTXUSHMCBK725.
Also, I run a few hubs, byteroll.com if you are in Europe, s.byteroll.com if you are in Asia, and e.byteroll.com if you are in America. You can use them without using my witness, to offload the main hub.

The flight oracle is run by tonych
How can I make sure of this? Anybody can download oracle code from github, modify it to feed a crappy data and run. How can I connect oracle address with RL identity?

I looked on stat of your witness. Around 4.5 % activity on net. Is this enough to trust?

This oracle GFK3RDAPQLLNCMQEVGGD2KCPZTLSG3HN is one of the witnesses that I run, you can find this address in your wallet and in every tx on explorer.

What about witness?
It is the second witness to be run by an independent community person, me. The purpose is to show that 1) witness of the creator can be replaced by the community, 2) to test and verify witness-parts of the code, or just one more witness running on the network and its effects, 3) to assess social/community aspects of the process, and last but not at all the least, 4) to earn for me some fat profits. In fact, if the profits are so fat, I would gladly also share the profits of the fees with EFF, GNU, Wikipedia and other cool organizations. Right now, there has been no profit-earning and just bytes loosing as running the witness looses bytes, but oh well. Great features! Nice developments.

I looked on stat of your witness. Arround 4.5 % activity on net. Is this enough to trust? The witness has a high up-time, but due to the nature of witness-es, I cant run it with a High-Availability configuration / automatic-failover in case when ISP/hardware fucks up, due to the small risk of accidentally having the same witness running at same time but posting different units - that is a recipe for disaster. The stat means 4.5% of all transactions have my witness selected, 7ULGTPFB72TOYA67YNGMX2Y445FSTL7O, but to be honest, if I was you I wouldnt trust me. Not yet, trust takes time, a lot of time. But if you are willing to experiment and wish to push/see another witness than default from creator, faster. Do it! Remember, you can always switch back or to another witness.

My GBYTES are at Bittrex. (How) can I participate in the airdrop distribution?
You could also install a byteball light wallet and withdraw them from bittrex for that day.

How does one became a witness besides being online all the time? I should post address here or somewhere, than someone may add me as a witness, or how does this ecosystem work?

u can make a full backup manually by copying the whole folder C:\Users\UserName\AppData\Local\byteball (Win10).

This is pretty huge. The multibillion insurance business that is run by big corporations is now open to every individual. All because in p2p contract it doesn't matter who are you insured with - if its a big corporation or a man in a cave in Afganistan - the result of the contract is the same. It means that the insurance companies better start insure within the byteball system or simply loose market share to us - the people.

byteball.frnow provides a heartbeat page that summarizes units activity on the network. Byteball.fr is an alternative hub (paired with master byteball.org) and community witness operated on a 300Mbps unmetered link. To get efficient communication, faster wallet sync and to support our community-driven Witness:
In your wallet settings hub set byteball.fr/bb Heps guys! We need more support for our witness! Thx

Can anybody help me solve the problem with my light wallet (upgraded to v1.8.2)? I funded it with some Gb recently, and today tried to make outgoing transaction to another BB address and saw this message from light wallet: Failed to send payment: [connect to light vendor failed]: Error: Socket Closed
What can I do to fix it?

The flight oracle is run by tonych so there is too much incentive for him not to lie, and he has very much already earned street cred.
Most oracles should not be anonymous though, unless you think shady deals.
How reliable is this oracle? If it doesn't report the information in time, can we see that it indeed has crashed and hasn't been just switched off to not report the outcome which would lead to money loss for its operator? Without reliability usage of such oracle is like playing in online casino which can say "Oops, we can't decide if you have won or lost" any time when you would win.
