I don't think IP's should be used in any of this for reasons which I explain here:

What you're suggesting is still a horrible idea overall but carryon.

you don't even understand what I am talking about but good. self-filter and don't come back.

This isn't a tech problem, its a people problem, any technical solution is going to have undesired effects on the user base.
Yeah, I would find it interesting to see 8f ANY tech company outside of Apple would have the balls to do this. Especially when the have to manage the publicity shytstorm as it relates to false positives.might it be useful if you could shadow-ban "all" of their accounts across social media? would that be more of a sanction?
might it be useful if users/sites could apriori filter out certain accounts for not being part of a particular system? sort of like how dns/routing works (with routing and caching)?
IMO the answers to these both are yes and yes.

I really don't think there's any technical action you could take without people complaining about censorship.![]()

It can't be done without destroying a core tenet (no pun intended) of the internet, relative anonymity.

that is not true. by using an un-invertible function you disassociate your generated (unique) ID from your real-world ID.
we have systems out there where people have identities which are not bound to their real world identity. you can make changes or apply sanctions based on their manufactured ID which impact the real person without knowing who the real person is.
for example:
you could impact someone by taking their bitcoin, you could ban then from the blockchain (both by rolling out code) and to do so you do not have to know who they are in the real world. your personage online does not have to be reversible to your personage offline for it to be useful as an identifier and to apply something to the person in real world. you can operate through a blind proxy and still affect them without knowing who the real world person is.
i.e. Bitcoin's Software Has Been Rolled Back Before – Technology Bitcoin News
you are locked into assuming that person -> ID must be reversible, because that is how they work most of the time, but that does not have to be the case.
