Dear Barry,
And the speaker said: Reputational services! They are being developed
and will augment this protocol to solve exactly that problem.

Do you see any reputational services? I don't.
Or not beyond some singular efforts where a search engine tries to
flag a link as potentially malicious.
There is a lot of added software coming from the likes of Symantec
& others that perform reputational services, only you don't see
it because all the spam that they filter out is essentially not seen
by the end user. Same for all of the blacklists like SpamCop etc.
Symantec services are of benefit to Symantec users and not All Users. At least do these different businesses exchange information between one another and collaborate?
That's DNS reputational services for you.
Internet requires a Reputation Service that is free from commercial agenda and free from political bias.
You can go as far as
actually not really knowing what these people do
Not knowing what they do is not OK. A good reputation service needs to a system of ranking that is fair, actually more responsive to domain names or Internet resources that require false positives reversed. In the current environment, it requires expert help even to know that there is a false reputation record somewhere, and is almost a dead wall when you try to get to them to reverse it.
and sub-contracting
your email handling to the Microsoft Cloud or Google/Gmail, or other
hosted spam filtering services.
BTW am I the only person who is still amazed at how many companies
including banks neither use DKIM nor TLS for their emails?
Kindest regards,
Olivier
