Problem here: what constitutes 'accountable' [...]
This would require a trusted entity which does the whole confirmation
and managment, some kind of 'consent clearinghouse'.
I agree, and this is the biggest challenge in this proposal. We already
have a clutch of CAs in place, but I think the for-profit approach for
e-mail CAs/Consent 'clearinghouses' will not work very well. In my mind,
I'd imagine a not-for-profit, international entity with a clear charter
and mandate. They could be the successors of today's spamhaus et al.
Of course, there's no reason why there should be only one trusted
entity: there could be several.
