I’m curious about how the idea of web of trust was implemented for this? Does it leverage GrapeRank or anything similar?
Kubo does not use Graperank or similar graph-computed webs of trust. It uses an 'association' event to establish the guardian-subject relationship for 2 keypairs, and uses 'moderation events' which are lists for view-only and interact permissions containing people, places, and events. This system defines 2 concentric bubbles of what can be seen and interacted with online, in which your kid can navigate, make contacts, build a follow list, etc. If you trust someone else's judgement over their children enough (e.g. your brother), you can 'extend' trust to them, which adopts their moderation events into your configuration. These events need to be respected by either a client, bunker, or relay. Although the design has already improved since, here is the most recent and comprehensive article on Trust Extended Permissions: Older articles on TEPP and Kubo: Operation Kidstr 02: North Star Operation Kidstr, 1: Circles and levels of trust
I got more in the works to look at the complexities of subscription models payouts and the controversial use of advertising revenue, in the most open and sovereign way, of course.
