I would agree that the in person aspect of the WoT is frustrating, but to di=
smiss this as "geek wanking" is the pot calling the kettle.=20
The value of in person vetting of identity is undeniable. Just because your r=
isk acceptance is difference doesn't make it wanking. Please go see if you c=
an get any kind of governmental clearance of credential without in-person ve=
tting. Ask them if they accept your behavioral signature.=20
I know there is a lot of PGP hating these days but this comment doesn't nece=
ssarily apply to every situation.=20
