Same! I'm just blocked by my need to finish the softwar audiobook because its mind worm is lodged in my brain right where the code writing bit is. Webs of Trust are a power projection technology in cyberspace, so I want to fully understand the only book that examines that subject before I continue. Zaps and their effect on trust make for an interesting case study.

I think I have that book on a shelf somewhere along with 20 other books in the freedom tech space, all on my to-read list lol. I hadn’t heard Jason talk about WoT but I’d be curious to know how deeply he’s thought about it

Even though he doesn't call out Web of Trust specifically, the two theories of Power Projection Theory and Softwar are designed to be the starting point for things like working out how WoT could be calculated in a non-exploitable way. The first step off his thesis towards that is just to base WoT calculations on proof of physical power and to avoid hypostatization risk.
