I believe this is a valuable addition. Like other User Generated Content (UGC), attribution is a requirement for the content to be trusted and used, therefore, if added, attribution will be required in some manner for it to be adopted. I know many people are concerned about attribution but I for one am happy to provide it in this field, in fact I think it will be required moving forward for full adoption, less we only rely a limited set of authoritative feeds.

Subject: [cti-users] STIX 2.1 Propsal - Opinion Object
*** EXTERNAL email. Please be cautious and evaluate before you click on links, open attachments, or provide credentials. ***
Hi All,
I'd like to propose the Opinion Object for STIX 2.1.
The Opinion object is an object that allows the creator of the Opinion object to agree/disagree with any other STIX Data Object or STIX Relationship Object. It will allow an Organization to disagree with a relationship between a Threat Actor and a Campaign for example, or agree with the contents of an Course of Action.
This is the first step towards consumers being able to crowd-source the opinion of the community, which will help newcomers to the threat intelligence sharing groups better understand which threats have a high degree of community agreement and which are contentious.
Further details in the attached PDF.
Cheers
Terry MacDonald | Chief Product Officer
