I think platforms and users need to be willing to sacrifice functions that can be abused. at least by default. Email and phone are both examples where enforcing allow-list communication at the protocol level could save them. Instead, both of these communication protocols are dying because they are now overflowing with scams and spams that are allowed to reach you instantly by default, with little to no distinction from legitimate communication. Something like Twitter probably should not exist in its current form.

You can already block unwanted calls or emails from unknown contacts today with those tools at least

  That's power users probably using that, or people with fancy phones. You can tweak settings and use extentions to improve just about any user experience, but if the default experience is being abused and 90% of the userbase won't ever switch from that, it's a problem. As far as the insane regulatory mess I'm seeing spawn up, I think p2p systems are the way to tackle that.
