while i'm against name squatting (& scams), i'm much more against "vetting", "verification". there are very valid reasons, to exactly not get verified; reasons that have nothing to do with bad intentions. in fact, i see us running into a massive trap, if we buy into the perception that anyone unverified (or unwilling to) is to be approached with suspicion. exactly this thinking is flawed, *very* actually.
"verification by association" sounds good, but it won't work in practice.
so, while i'm seeing your motivation, i strongly disagree with the suggested.
