Prediction markets about the judgements of readers is another thing I keep thinking about. Systems where people can make themselves accountable to Courts of Opinion by betting on their prospective judgements. Courts occasionally grab a comment and investigate it deeper than usual and enact punishment or reward depending on their findings.
I’ve raised these sorts of concepts with lightcone as a way of improving the vote sorting (where we’d sort according to a prediction market’s expectation of the eventual ratio between positive and negative reports from readers). They say they’ve thought about it.
I guess prediction markets will help.
