Gridanians live under the sufferance of the elementals, whose wishes are interpreted through Hearers (and Padjal? I'm not too clear on the specifics). Basically, if they say you're out, you're out. It's like being exiled. Everyone turns their backs on you. Gods help you if you committed woodsin and incurred Greenwrath.
I think how far an authority figure could step before a civilian/citizen would object also depends on the city-state/region in question. I'd imagine there's a lot more leeway on both sides of the fence with Yellowjackets: the civilian is more free to resist authority, and the Yellowjacket more free to exert it. Compare the Blades and 'sworn of Thanalan, who have to constantly be mindful of the more complex political realities of Ul'dah.
As for imposters, well, "as long as you're not caught".
