RE: Modeling information in an information rating system

I don't know what you do, so I can't comment on how much consensus is required between you and others to do it.

But I can say with certainty that much of the services you rely on (to do the things you do")required some consensus among other people (you're not necessarily included in that consensus but you still benefit from it). As a simple example, there had to be consensus on network standards to allow the computers you use to communicate with those of other people. You rely on consensus of this sort all the time in your daily life, whether you realize it or not. Without consensus in many areas, human technology wouldn't have advanced much.
