However, there is a point that the article makes rather correctly re spam, and it applies not only to WebMention but any federated system. While unforunately W3C/ERCIM didn't renew my D-CENT contract, we're booting up a new research project at INRIA and University College London to look at this problem called NEXTLEAP. The same researchers behind it are the folks who discovered the TLS attacks and statistical disclosure attacks on Tor, so expect some good work in this space to be fed to the W3C shortly. I'm sure its a solvable problem. -- Harry Halpin (W3C/MIT) harry@w3.org
