Tighter integration between browsers, phones, and email could help with this quite a bit, I think. Default-allow every domain you give an email to, default-allow every specific address in your contact book (and maybe everyone you know on social networks?), default-deny everything else.
A decent first-pass solution to part of this might be to just have email allow every domain in my password manager.
I think the data's there to make this work a lot better, it's just that all the parts aren't talking to one another.

- bluefirebrand 3y agoThe thing is that humans might actually use Email to talk to humans that they have never met before and that should be a legitimate use case of email, but because spam has made it impossible to keep up with the volumes we are bombarded with that is no longer the case.
- shadowgovt 3y agoYou're correct, but this is one of the reasons the megacorps dominate this space; they have the resources to do that integration. In contrast, what would it look like for an independent operator to roll out or maintain such an ecosystem?
