On a general note, I like vouch by mitchellh.

> People must be vouched for before interacting with certain parts of a project (the exact parts are configurable to the project to enforce).

I think many projects will adopt this instead of allowing everyone / blocking everyone

Many projects have "ai slop" check in place to directly close and ban user if it is "ai slop". Else, it will be hard to handle the velocity of PRs

Maybe a network of ppl who can vouch they meet in real life?

I don't know if having your name/ face a secret is still acceptable? Maybe tiers of devs (anon vs other) on that one?
