Reputation is a typical force in society. Businesses might want to do malicious things but the fear of destroying their identity helps to keep them in line.
Personally I trust something more when someone puts their reputation on the line for it.
- zAy0LfpBZLC8mAC 9y agoWell, yeah, sure ... so how would that be any different with tor hidden services?
- nikcub 9y agoReputation is also a force in onion land. There are hidden services that are trusted and those that aren't. You see it with the drug marketplaces - users self-organize a distributed reputation system that tells other users which sites can be trusted with bitcoin and drug transactions and which cannot. It's a remarkably well functioning and resilient system - and its hosted across reddit, forums, blogs, etc.
