One view is that it depends on who you, personally, choose to trust. [[Content Wiki]] lets anyone sign any version of any article. Setting [[preferences]] lets the [[buy signal]] reflect what / who you believe, and ignore who you don't. | |||
However, we will have to offer some sane default values. So we need a default on how to set the default and so on. And, beyond that, someone really has to review all the mechanics of signing and signalling, and disputes and protests, and the way [[score]] is handled, and make what amounts to a proof that the [[instructional capital]] we have been provided by [[Consumerium:contributor]]s are trustworthy. | |||
What other [[user role]]s must support auditors? How can we avoid becoming [[Enron]], which also had '''trusted auditor'''s looking out for shareholders (not!)? | |||
This function is so important, [[betting]] against the auditor finding problems might have to be supported directly, so there is maximum incentive for auditors to find all problems, and for [[troll]]s to keep maximum eye on the auditors. The bureaucratic view is that process works perfectly and never needs outside auditors. This was the view at [[Enron]] too. ''Sure, double or nothing.'' | |||
