This is my current attempt at preparing to counter the spam waves that will be appearing as the fediverse becomes more and more popular.

It involves the creation of whitelists based on a chain of trust between instances with easy ways to add and remove into it with few overheads.

Let me know what you think and if you're interested, please do register your instance at https://overctrl.dbzer0.com.

Yes I am cognisant to the fact that it's likely most won't bother to sign. I'm considering just importing all instances and allow others to guarantee for them whether they've been claimed for not. Claiming am instance will likewise just allow their admins to guarantee and endorse other instances

Way I see it, they motivation to sign up is to crowdsourced trust building in the fediverse, instead of relying on defacto webs of trust which will develop organically around the big players.
