This is not a problem with WoT. This is a problem with 15 years of “follow” implemented by “walled garden” socials where trust is taken for granted.

The problem is that “follow != trust” and this matters even more on Nostr.

Sovereign Webs of Trust…
Curious?

*Comment bellow to offer your own.*

1. What does Sovereign WoT mean to you?

2. Does it require “is trusted” (for a followed account) to be explicitly set by the user, or could “is trusted” be ONLY calculated by algos and still count as sovereign?

3. If explicit is required, can “is trusted” simply be a “follows” (kind3) list, or does it actually need a dedicated ( private event kind) “trusted” list?

4. Would (your) Sovereign WoT require that content filters follow users across clients, and be sharable by them?

5. Should these filters (for end users) be publishable ONLY by clients or ONLY by relays or ONLY by DVMs or ANY and ALL of these?
