jQuery
(https://jquery.com) 📸 Data Snapshot: June 20, 2026Count trust words (review, testimonial, rating, verified) against real outbound proof links (Google, Trustpilot, Clutch, G2, Yelp). Lots of trust language with zero verification links is trust theatre. Unlinked logo galleries count against it.
The site triggers a trust theatre penalty due to the presence of a ‘review_count’ of 1 or 2 across all pages while having a ‘proof_links_count’ of 0. Within this framework, displaying any review metric without a direct verifiable link to the source constitutes trust theatre. However, the site compensates by providing direct ‘View Source on GitHub’ and ‘npm’ paths, which act as functional proof for a technical product.
Proof density is high, focused on technical specification rather than social proof. Verifiable evidence includes the MIT license declaration, specific IRC and Matrix chat channels for support, and precise versioning history for the jQuery Migrate plugin. The ratio of substantiated technical facts to vague marketing assertions is approximately 10:1.
Trust & Proof is read by weighing trust language against real verification. Below is the page-by-page tally of review mentions and external proof links, then the schema markup that may (or may not) declare verifiable ratings and identity proof.
