Moderation should work peer-to-peer. If somebody wants to post they have to first review posts which were flagged by users to violate the TOS. If sufficient users agree on the flag, the post is taken down.

This. You should read up about how recaptcha worked in the early days to do 'authority of the masses'. (I don't know any particular sources, maybe these methods are properly defined now in some framework.)

I would absolutely love to see this attempted.

In order for a user for flag a post. They must highlight the portion of the ToS that is violated.

This has the added benefit of requiring people to actually read the frickin ToS to use the app!!!!!
