- Description:
- It would also be good to have a serious logic of trust.
This cannot be a deliverable, as it is certain to be a huge academic undertaking. But one could start
with some very useful rules of thumb. With enough such rules one could start to work out what a minimal trust logic is going to be.
So say I trust <http://friends.va/jesus#me> and his close friends for a particular task, or to access certain specific resources. Someone logs into my server I don't know, proving he is<http://judas.com/#me> with a claim in his Profile that
<http://judas.com/#me> owl:sameAs <http://friends.va/d/judas#x>.
Should I believe it? Well not like that, if I care at all. But if
http://friends.va/d/judas
says
<http://friends.va/d/judas#x> owl:sameAs <http://judas.com/#me> .
Then that is confirmation.
And if it happens that <http://friends.va/jesus> (the document) states that
@prefix rel: <http://purl.org/vocab/relationship/>
<http://friends.va/jesus#me> rel:closeFriendOf <http://friends.va/d/judas#x>.
Then I have confirmation of the relationship I need to give access.
