Those that know or learn this trait about you will then give you a very 
low value of trust for the computation of their web-of-trust matrix. This 
was a major consideration in designing the way web-of-trust works.

As has already been pointed out in this thread (and others before it) 
all current implementations have too great a friction for widespread 
acceptance, use, or understanding.  End of story.
