- you're right, spoofing is simply always going to be a threat where DNS is involved, but also anyone could spoof the service that I mention in the original post too the same way. "fedifeid" or whatnot. solutions that get around that are huge crypto-based things that are unlikely to play nice with IT infrastructure at say, news orgs
