I am also not sure about the question, but I would say this: you should 
probably consider using DANE [1] records to enable users to secure TLS 
connections to your GNS-resolved sites. GNUnet's GNS-enabled socks proxy 
validates TLS server certificates against DANE records in GNS, and 
gnunet-namestore-gtk can help you create DANE records.
