I don't really see, what that has to do with Bitcoin.
It is a reputation system for merchants, like Amazon, Ebay, etc. already have.

This project defeats the whole purpose of using different Bitcoin addresses for each transaction (as Satoshi said), which is one of the key features of both security & privacy for whoever use  Bitcoin out there .
and ... hmm NSA is involved , not cool.

Moyer, who started his career doing signals intelligence for the army and later for the NSA, used cash as an analogy for the way bitcoin is right now pretty much anonymous.

Not sure how the system works out because there's no in depth details just yet. For one I can imagine if let's say I'm a seller at forum marketplace, can certainly use this as a reputation system to establish whether I'm a trusted seller. This without relying the internal forum feedback system and I can certainly use this similar reputation system on different forum platforms

It`s interesting idea. I do prefer to have different address on each transaction and build trust on the feedback from the others to my accounts in different systems and forums.

is not impossible that a man who has a good reputation for fraud, but for now it is a good idea I think. and there will also be services to raise the reputation

I don't mind the prospect of it and it has a purpose but I won't really be interested in using it though there are going to be a lot of people really against the idea, but there's nothing people can do to stop the creation of things like this. I guess that's the beauty of bitcoin.

Sure, I agree. This is very good point.
