re: Announcing the Oliphant Social BlocklistS (plural!)
@oliphant The whole point of using something like this, a T0 list, is that they are picking a "minimal" set, very few if anyone is going to start with a minimal set, especially with such a long list as that, and review it one by one.. and without good receipts they cant really evaluate it well either...
Id argue starting with T0, considering the main T0 list linked is riddled with good-actors, is far FAR worse than starting with 0 and building up.
re: Announcing the Oliphant Social BlocklistS (plural!)
If you want my opinion... instead of blindly basing blocks on how popular a block is, start with receipts... **require** any block on any list to have a receipt.. start a universal receipts system (I wrote one already, havent released, happy to team up).
That alone will eliminate the vast majority of the issue.. users can, as you say, actually validate against receipts, and the accused should (if the receipt system is open) be guaranteed the ability to provide counter-receipts, true transparency
