WoT has many benefits but is not a side-effect free drug.
Disadvantages of WoT:
- slows growth: new users need to be vouched by existing users
- barrier to entry: strangers (not well-connected users) will find it difficult to join existing circles
- network effect: reaching critical mass is hindered as two strangers can’t find each other
- lack of diversity: focus on trust means we will favor those with similar views
