How would you architect and secure a platform where virtue determines access and governance, not popularity or money? Looking for: security opinions, stack suggestions, critiques, and threat modeling. If anyone is interested in collaboration on this premise please let me know.

Interested. Background is in software and devops.

Follow up..

access and governance are two separate things: Authentication and Authorization. Each might have a different answer.

The “thing” accessed.. is it user created, community owned, or institutionally owned? I would imagine that has a bearing on the process.

EDIT 2:

Stack Overflow immediately comes to mind.

This answer might be more philosophic than useful, but how acceptable is a violation of the virtue or trust? Say a virtuous person abuses the trust in an unquestionable way.. say they used community funds to buy narcotics for children. Is it “ok” to base a system on past virtue when future virtue is highly consequential?
