Then in the worst case we're back where we are now, 500+ 5 star reviews from random strangers. But with the benefit of an open WoT graph your client can analyze and take out the bots. And most likely there will be some celebrity you trust in that group. It already works great now with our tiny community and I think it will work better with more users and a more interconnected graph.

I dunno. I think it works great because of our tiny community and once you get the masses it breaks down. It’s so easy to go under the radar when no one is technically competent to evaluate your software. And at scale that could mean many victims before it’s ever noticed.
Mhhh, I'll have to do more thinking about this, but intuitively it feels like a larger network means stronger WoT. You're right that we need to be careful tho.
