Paul,
Ok, I'm dense. How do I meaningfully consent to
somebody for which I have no a priori information
about their consentworthiness?
PV> you can't. that's why you're getting spammed.
What makes this such an "interesting" problem is the critical need for
spontaneous (unsolicited and uncoordinated) communication is many
human activities. Eliminating the ability to have new people show up
without an "appointment" will cripple some activities.
