Mastodon has a verification mechanism, though it looks different from Twitter's. We do not ask for your documents. Instead, if you have a website that you are known by, you can verify that you are the owner of that website.

Link to your Mastodon profile from the website, either through a visible link, or through a <link> tag in the head of the document, with a rel=me attribute, and link back to that page from your Mastodon profile. It should then get a green checkmark, like @Mastodon.

Since TheGibson "working with the feds" is the hot topic of the day, I just gotta say that from what I've seen (the five of so toots of evidence against him) it sounds like he "works for the feds" about as much as anyone "works for the fire department" when they call 911 to report a fire.

When your job is to secure computer systems, sometimes you run into internet Mafia types, or foreign government attackers, or new scary viruses, and they need reporting because that's the only avenue we have.

Consider unfollowing that person that always leaves you feeling worse about things.
