WoT requires a history, a back story. It doesn't just work. A cryptographic proof just works first try, during an onboarding with no prior history. If she is knew and agents are attacking that 1% she has a problem.

still incorrect, friend. a single, low trust node in your WoT could have 10,000 bots "attacking it", and it won't matter to you as long as you strongl trust a few honest actors. (this is why i said grandma needs to bootstrap via her family). the closer, stronger trust hops completely negate the more distant/lower trust hops even in the case of massive bot activity. @david has written extensively about this

Are you familiar with MEV? This is basically what we are talking about.
