Is external account verification possible to end the medias obsession with official accounts?

Some sort of service that verifies accounts?

It's also ironic how being unable to delete accounts across instances is being treated like a big deal when anything worth taking note of on the internet will get backed up anyways once it goes public. Screenshots, caches, etc. Public accounts aren't supposed to be closed circles.

@oyasumi Surely they can just tweet a link to their profile and be done with it? But fir a service? The Twitter or Facebook APIs are already used for authentication so.

@Nafrondel No way, apparently that's not certain enough. @Nafrondel@mylittlepony.club Could be you, It's way too confusing! /S

You're right, people are getting caught up on there vetted accounts remaining that way though.
