Out of curiosity, what's current thinking (broad strokes) on methods to address this?

My first guess would be third-party attestation of identity, with stored credential disposal on a short schedule? Essentially normal-user-verification-as-a-service?

Self-sovereign identities (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-sovereign_identity) are one attempt to address this issue.

privacy, online safety, no false positives

Pick two.

Different companies do different trade-offs. The optimal solution depends on how the internet community weighs each individual axis

Two would be amazing. One would be nice. Currently we get zero.
