Some [[CSCW]] researchers investigate '''trust''' within and between teams of people and how it can be used as a tool in determining how information is actually shared between members. | |||
Topics of interest include (but are not limited to): | |||
*[[repute]]: "information and person credibility assessment and usage", | |||
*[[defer]]ence relations: "trusted information routing discovery mechanisms," | |||
*[[faction]]s: "the use of trust as a tool for decision making regarding information sharing." - [http://www.stephenmarsh.ca/CSCW04/index.html] | |||
"In general, the disclosure of information, how it propagates through networks of people and machines, and how trust can play a valuable part in, amongst other things, what is disclosed, to whom, when, and for what duration." - by [[Stephen Marsh]] of the [[National Research Council of Canada]]. | |||
*[http://www.stephenmarsh.ca/CHI04/ CHI 04 papers on trust] and how it is abused, e.g. by [[sysop power structure]]. | |||

'''Trust''' for our purposes can be divided into [[found trust]], [[built trust]] and [[grown trust]]. It can be measured as "[[social capital]]" but not very reliably, as usually a [[faction]] gets involved in what behaviour is seen as admirable or reliable or even predictable, and is certainly required to create [[reputation]]. | '''Trust''' for our purposes can be divided into [[found trust]], [[built trust]] and [[grown trust]].

[[Troll]]s tend to challenge prevailing ideas about trust - on [[large public wiki]]s they very often succeed in reversing people's beliefs about reputation and trustworthiness, by using a sort of [[scientific method]] of baiting [[sysop]]s. This works quite reliably and may bring about [[regime change]]. | [[Troll]]s tend to challenge prevailing ideas about trust - on [[large public wiki]]s they very often succeed in reversing people's beliefs about reputation and trustworthiness, by using a sort of [[scientific method]] of baiting [[sysop]]s.

In response to 18th century trolls, who created the French Revolution and American Revolution, [[governance organization]]s began to use [[distrust]] more explicitly, to prevent trust from becoming too centralized. This is probably what the [[Consumerium Governance Organization]] should do on day one, instead of repeating all of political evolution as [[Wikipedia]] is doomed to do, wasting years trying to deny that [[politics as usual]] is also inevitable and that [[factionalism]] is probably good too, when it's correctly supported and each element of the [[political spectrum]] has their own role & [[faction]] to protect [[common interests]]. | |||
A [[legal trust]] like a [[patent pool]] is a different question entirely. | A [[legal trust]] like a [[patent pool]] is a different question entirely. | ||
