Any ideas how to employ WoT into mutable?
Example: suppose I followed some bad actor npub by mistake. Maybe an impersonator that fooled me, or maybe an AI bot with some witty shitposts who was part of a link farm attack. I might want to check to see if Iβm following any bad actors so that I can unfollow them!
How? One indicator would be an npub that is highly reported. But youβd want to restrict your attention to reports by non-spammy users, and thatβs where WoT comes in.
One of the main thrusts of the #wotathon is to make this super easy for the dev to implement. The idea behind Separation of Trust and Client is that you wonβt have to calculate the trust metrics; someone else does that for you. So if Alice follows Bob, and Bob is muted (and reported) by N (or M) users, mutable simply accesses the relevant rank metrics from kind 30382 Trusted Assertions to calculate the βmuted by (reported by) N verified usersβ score.
What do you think?
