No, it's blind faith. Trust is a synonym for faith. If it makes you feel better, you can say blind trust, I'm okay with that.

And you're correct there's a lot of shit I must blindly trust, too. That's bad. That's not a refutation of my point, you're actually reinforcing it.

We've forced ourselves into a situation where blind faith in moral actions is required to function in society. That is ripe for abuse. Which is probably why we see it abused every day.
