Sorry for the late reply....

I like to give a (fictitious) example.

A person with bad things in mind could theoretically use anonymous
email services via Tor or Remailer Services via Tor, with a proper
looking name used in his/her email/nym address. I believe that a lot
of people do not care to much from what domain an email arrives, as
long as the email is not spam.  With my approach there is a postcard.
With the currently used validation model people would have a hard time
to find the bad person, in case he / she would abuse the WoT.

Regards
Stefan
