The domain owner is already (mostly) in control. They will generally
have authority over the email servers, which allows e.g. blocking all
mail with a mailing list header.

If the users do not like that policy, they will have to vote with their
feet and send mail from a different domain. I do not imagine that any of
the major "free" email domains will post "p=reject-yes-I-really-mean-it"
policies, so it is not a terrible hardship.

I checked a few of the major free email domains, they post p=none at
present. When that is the case and when they apply their own judgement
to p=reject and p=quarantine, what is the actual value of current DMARC?
