@ryanc @jerry The spam analogy is very apt, I think, given Fediverse is often analogized to email.

And the wild-west-anyone-runs-anything approach is largely a failure there, too. I also used to run a personal mail server. It only worked if I proxied every message through my ISP's mail server.

A similar network-of-trust seems the only option here, give or take details.
