You cannot trust a society... only its individual members. Society is just a concept, a group of people, but every of those people are very different individuals, even that they form a common goal in something.
You cannot say "I trust X" and because X trusted Y and Z "I also trust 100 of X". That's stupid and is not trust, is just blind following, like sheeps.
Trust is bond earned very hard between individuals, not fictitious entities.
Trust a society is like saying I trust all SN as a community. That is plain stupid. You cannot know very well and build a trust relation with somebody from a society that you don't know who is a member or what they do.
I trust NOBODY online, even that are 2 stackers here on SN that knows me in real life.
