Trust models. Big rabbit hole. Critique and analysis of zero trust, contracts, motives etc. Very enlightening and fun in a way.

  Good topic. Trust isn't properly understood yet. Look at Sir Berners-Lee: smart guy, but he put "trust" as a component box in his vision of the so-called Semantic Web as if it was an API that you could just call. Trust is of course an emergent property of a well-designed, reliable, transparent, safe and secure system, and as such it is a relation between a system and its human users. Please write up what you find out and share!

    Will do. Origin story; planned to write a short series of very tiny booklets on cybersecurity for some students. Question arose; what is the most atomic concept in cybersec from which to build? Networks? Crytptography? Identity? Risk? Quality? After about two months I decided it was Trust. Totally sucked me in to reading everything from tribal anthropology to cold-war game theory. It feels like a great invisible dark mass holding a galaxy of other things together.
