Who can you trust? Find out with Trustplus' PeopleResearch
Not sure who to trust in this crazy world? TrustPlus, a browser plug-in, looks to solve your trust issues with some social networking mojo. The plug-in, available for both IE and Firefox, adds an overlay to sites where trust can be an important decision factor, like Craigslist, eBay, Backpage, Gumtree or Facebook. The overlay reports trust information contained within a users' "trustcircle".

Useful? Certainly. You'll pardon us, however, if we're a little leery of even further expanded access to the amazing amounts of personal data lying around in public databases. Sure, we'd use TrustPlus but, we probably wouldn't like ourselves for using it.
