plugin-WebOfTrust
Collaborative spam filter for Freenet. Short overview: https://goo.gl/ZR3zg5 Whitepaper: https://git.io/vXtHN Suppor contact & maintainer: @xor-freenet
Sorry, I should have been clearer on that, the identities will be general-purpose for any application that needs identities that are "hard" to create, probably the initial use-case is a web-of-trust-based decentralized reputation system (modelled on the original web-of-trust plugin in Freenet, but better due to the benefits of Locutus.
This threshold would be calibrated dynamically by a decentralized mechanism to control the rate at which new reputations are created, similar to Bitcoin's "difficultly adjustment" mechanism (although I'd probably use an approach based on pair adjacent violators).
I started working on decentralization a few years ago but saw zero interest and never got to the hard part of detecting attacks. I got a simple test system going that takes care of basic connectivity and peer discovery if you are interested: https://github.com/rand3289/OutNet
