Ethics swirl around the word like dust motes in a shaft of light. Who owns the right to verify? Who decides which streams are trusted? Centralized authorities can confer verification as a badge, but centralization concentrates influence: a single compromised root can negate — or manufacture — trust. Decentralized verification promises resilience but introduces fragmentation: multiple attestations, contested claims. Both architectures are social systems disguised as technical choices. Trust is less an algorithm than an ongoing negotiation among engineers, regulators, and the people under observation.
