Interesting history and analysis of SMTP’s history. How can we prevent fedi and other open protocols from suffering the same fates?

    So you’re offering a system that requires the instance/provider admins to manually federate with others instead of the federation being enabled by default?

      You’re misunderstanding me again. Please try reading what I said again.

      I’m not suggesting allowlist federation, though that is another tactic that could be used. I’m just saying that a spammer on the fediverse would be quickly defederated and would have to buy a new domain to keep spamming, which would probably be too expensive to justify.
