in?<\/b><\/h3><h2><b>1. The Collegial Assumptions World<\/b><\/h2><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The root word \u201ccollege\u201d is the tipoff. In most contexts a college is a secondary or post-secondary educational institution or a part of one. Additional meanings are given by The Cambridge Dictionary as \u201ca group of people with a particular job, purpose, duty, or power who are organized into a group for sharing ideas, making decisions, etc.\u201d It then defines\u201ccollegial\u201d as \u201crelating to a friendly relationship between colleagues.\u201d<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Phil Zimmermann\u2019s PGP builds the assumptions of the Collegial Assumptions world into a system with documented rules and standards. PGP is a perfect framework for the embodiment of collegial assumptions.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Collegials understand that personal accountability is an essential part of a working society, and that in a society whose structure is increasingly digital, identity reliability is at the core of accountability. People must be accountable for their words and actions.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In PGP, identity is established in a beautifully collegial method. Individuals vouch for each others\u2019 claims of identity, and the more people from more collegial groups who say you are who you claim to be, the higher your identity reliability score. That collegial method works charmingly well for collegial groups.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Then when PGP is exposed to the rest of the world, where people from the the third set of assumptions (which we will get to shortly) live, PGP falls flat. PGP is eminently corruptible when money and power enter the picture.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When real money is at stake, how difficult is it to gather a few larcenous non-collegials in order to corrupt PGP by vouching for each others\u2019 fake identities? To make the job easier, each participant can create dozens of fake identities and have them all join associations and clubs that lack membership controls. For good measure they\u2019ll use email addresses from a variety of easily penetrated domains.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">That vulnerability never entered the view of the collegials, because, you know, our people don\u2019t behave like that. And our people don\u2019t care enough about money to let it jeopardize their relationships with other collegials. And, well, we maintain the boundaries of our collegial circles such that we tend not to mingle with people from outside those circles so we tend to not encounter, you know, greed and avarice. We invest our retirement savings with financial advisors who avoid the word \u201cfiduciary,\u201d in funds that obfuscate their fees, because their marketing makes them appear\u2026 you know\u2026 collegial. They&#8217;re one of us.<\/span><\/p><h3><b>Collegials and their authority allergy<\/b><\/h3><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Authority is craved by people with certain personality disorders (narcissism, megalomania, egocentrism, etc.) Authority provides that which those people lust after, which is power. When they do get that authority, thus power, it is so frequently misused that authority in general is distrusted by the collegials.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Collegials themselves seem to have a low apparent appetite for power, although that appetite is sometimes present but is suppressed and denied because it contradicts collegial assumptions.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">PGP is one of countless manifestations of the effort to dispense with authority. It\u2019s a wonderful tool for collegial communities. It reinforces their denial of the existence of greed and avarice. And because their world purportedly excludes greed and avarice, they believe that decentralization serves as a viable replacement for authority.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now if there were to be \u2013 this is hypothetical of course \u2013 such things as greed and avarice, then a firmer basis for accountability, and therefore identity, would be needed. If you and I are to believe that a person claiming to be Jennifer is really Jennifer, and that the real Jennifer is accountable not just to one counterparty in a blockchain transaction but rather to all those she deals with, then we need (gasp!) an authority that attests that this claim of \u201cJennifer\u201d to be the real Jennifer can be trusted.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As Lawrence Lundy-Bryan notes,<\/span><\/p><h3><b>\u201cThere is no such thing as decentralized governance.\u201d<\/b><\/h3><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A collegial group is a network of nice guys.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And we know how nice guys finish \u2013 right?<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">They \u201ctrust, but verify.\u201d<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Note the emphasis: trust before verification. PGP and other collegial networks are for communities where trust is more or less assumed.<\/span><\/p><p><b>A Note About Nomenclature<\/b><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Among members of the third group, which we&#8217;ll get to shortly, the word \u201ccollegials\u201d is replaced with the word \u201cmarks\u201d or \u201cchumps.\u201d<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But first&#8230;<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-9751e94 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"9751e94\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b769153 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"b769153\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2><b>2.

For a mafia, it\u2019s simply a procedural necessity and has nothing to do with rules from outside the organization.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ideology is another point of distinction. Legitimate politicians tend to have sets of beliefs, particularly when it comes to economics.While the words\u201cconservative\u201d and\u201cliberal\u201d are regularly tossed around without a lot of definition, legitimate politicians tend to believe those words represent ends of a meaningful spectrum of beliefs, and they see themselves as advocates of policies based somewhere on that spectrum.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mafias will pretend to observe ideologies in their efforts to recruit chumps, but under the surface it is pure brutal power struggle. A mafia does not care about ideology.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hitler\u2019s Nazi party and Stalin\u2019s Communist party are purported to represent opposite ends of an ideological spectrum.
