    WebChain of trust, the site only trusts certain attesters (yes this would be really bad for Linux).

    EDIT: Used the wrong “of trust”

      Every time somebody calls this “web of trust” I feel the need to remind that really Web of Trust is a system of, well, decentralized manual trust, like with PGP. Like in Retroshare or Freenet for some people.

      Every such attempt at replacing the actually relevant meaning of a thing which is still good and needed is suspicious.
