The human.json protocol is worth checking out as a proxy for the whole "more human internet" conversation. Not perfect but interesting!

`human.json` is a neat idea and I’ve been watching it closely. I’m even debating dropping one on my own site.

That being said, the fact that the obvious attack vector goes completely unaddressed gives me pause.

what obvious attack vector? It's just a list of urls and dates, and the dates don't even really mean anything.

It would be better if it acted like a vouch tree so you could create a web of trust but there's no enforcement mechanism so I don't even know how that would work.
