I had to check the proposal at its source to make sure it wasn't an April Fools joke.

Having managed an exchange instance for my old job, I can safely say that DKIM and DMARC are just some extra DNS entries for out-of-band verification. They can be boiled down to a pair of checkboxes on a compliance sheet.
I can also say that most of the companies we got emails from didn't have DKIM, and even fewer had DMARC. Or worse, they had DMARC set to p=ignore. Which is honestly even more infuriating.
Meanwhile, Microsoft's Exchange platform blatantly ignores DMARC failures for senders and relays on its "Good PTR list". Bit of a glaringly large hole for spam to pass through.
You wan... sum fuk?
Lemme smash.

Oh please, you wouldn't have it out of the holster before the already prepared-to-react swat team, with their already raised barrels, would open fire on you.
As for me, I'll just reinforce my door and frame with metal and get a home camera system. If a swat team comes knocking, it'll buy enough time for me to turn on the intercom and ask for both the warrant and affidavit that they are required to have on hand.
Wouldn't be surprised if they got some personally delivered letters from the legal department of a big media company, given that they blocked visibility to some magazines on other servers.
Sounds more like poor self-checkout design.
All the stores I've been to with self-checkout require placing your just scanned item into the bag on a scale. If the weight change doesn't match what it expects, it locks up and requires a store employee to check and clear it.
Downside is, it has problems with very light items.
I give him 10 minutes before he opens his mouth and instantly falls afoul of Evil Overlord List entry 11.
I will be secure in my superiority. Therefore, I will feel no need to prove it...
You would think, after 20+ skips, that their algorithm would learn to not play Pepper Coyote's Blast Radius.
Apparently not.
There's also a limited federation mode that server admins can use. Users and posts are still searchable, but they do not show on the public federated feed.
Useful for this exact case where a server may have beneficial accounts, but the rest should be hidden for moderation reasons.
Still would prefer it being on a proper mastodon server, but I can live with this. Whatever server ends up hosting a President's account now has to deal with record preservation laws for their posts. Let's leave that bureaucratic stuff to threads.
