Everyone is not the scope. People who chose to is the scope. Heck,
"everyone" includes people who aren't domain operators also.

Use cases:

- Victim notification of compromised webpages or abuse reports.

- Use in reputational systems to better calibrate security policy to
trust "good" sources and mistrust "bad" sources.

- Aid in investigations, correlate malicious infrastructure, etc.

It would be in a public database in one instance only:

Someone chooses to put it there.

Ok, if there is a better solution, I'm listening. I'm not hear to
mandate a path, I started a discussion. What technical mechanism can be
implemented that scales that can facilitate mutual trust with everyone
an organization corresponds with?

And again, this proposal doesn't require anything and it certainly
doesn't do a proposal for "all your personal information", there are
only four classes of OPTIONAL data: name, email, phone, address. And it
can be role-based information. You could presumably fill all four of
those out validly and expose NO personal information.
