One takeaway not to be overlooked is the importance of building in solutions to anticipated problems early.

So much of the email mess comes down to the lack of protections against bad actors from the beginning and the difficulty of adding them after the fact.

I do give email some forgiveness because technologies like PKI were still kind of young back then.

However, as we set about promoting this #ActivityPub system, we should avoid those issues by addressing technological deficiencies sooner than later.

So much of the email story came down to a few big movers standardizing add on solutions somewhat unilaterally. We should stay ahead of that here.
