Trust is everywhere. I eat at a cafe being trusted to pay later. In South Korea, I am trusted to have paid for my ticket upon entering the train (no one ever checked it). I trust every person I stroll past in a dark alley to not rob me at knifepoint. I am trusted by my customers to not deliver a backdoored codebase (yes, there is the letter of the contract, but really it comes down to interpersonal trust since they cannot verify it themselves). Etc., etc.
