It is worth repeating that just because the notion of a reputation

questions have been given due consideration and resolved - as our
process would normally require.
Could you give us a reference to an explanation of why the DNS might not
be a sound choice of protocol for reputation services?
This protocol can use domain names as lookup keys as well as IP addresses.
