My theory is web-of-trust-based moderation can fix this but not on Twitter because they won't allow such an integration. So we should try it on the fediverse. One of these days I'll hook this kind of thing up to Mastodon (watch https://github.com/weex/wot-server if you're interested in knowing when that happens).
Hmm, so like a social credit score for the fediverse? Trolling a bit of course, but that seems like it could have a lot of unintended consequences that are rather bad.
More of a high-dimensional trust vector but I get your point. We won't know the consequences until we try it. Some of the potential advantages are scalability, transparency, optionality, automation, resistance to bots, and decentralization.
