As far as I know Amazon doesn't make any ADSP assertions, but it is my
impression that they sign all their transactions with DK or DKIM, and
they're certainly a phish target, so it would be reasonable to drop
unsigned Amazon mail anyway.
   
What happens when Amazon has a service using a parent signature?  As a 
result of a third-party vouching service, their messages might be 
discarded, and they won't become aware of the issue until damage is wide 
spread.   TINLA, but it seems having a service advocating for the 
discard of someone elses's email could be a liability.  How does one 
determine whether a vouching service is authoritative for the domain in 
question?  Please don't say use another vouching service, because the 
issue is _who_ should decide whether a message must have a valid 
Author-Domain signature or be discarded.
