This might be where the internet really gets forked, as it's been predicted over and over since the '90s.

On one side, we'll have a "clean", authority-sanctioned "corpweb", where everyone is ID'ed to the wazoo; on the other, a more casual "greynet" galaxy of porn and decentralized communities will likely emerge, once all tinkerers get pushed out of corpnet. It could be an interesting opportunity to reboot a few long-lost dreams.

Can the non-authority web be counter-attestation? That is if your attestation comes back as valid you can't visit the "cool kids" web? If there were sufficiently interesting content, maybe it could break attestation.
