User Authority - A Better Reputation System With Interesting Applications

in steemdev •  7 years ago 

So I posted this asking cryptoctopus further down, but think it belongs here...

So what about this attack vector: An attacking user creates one hundred accounts. These accounts all follow each other giving them a neutral UA. Then all of these accounts follow the attacking user to transfer their UA to the attacking user.

Wouldn't this be a way to undermine the UA system?

I like the idea behind UA, I'm just worried it can be easy to take advantage of.
