Well, Kyle would have to collect a lot of wellknown signatures to build a 
web of trust for his robot. Quite feasable.

And there might be some more robots with their own web of trust. That would 
offer an opportunity to choose which robots to trust. Today Granny would 
have to ask Alice, but tomorrow a trusted e-mail software provider might to 
the choice.
