There's a whole lot of conversation still to be had about proving identity, but just want to call out that this option is available right now (and super cool to see!) The only way Dylan could get a nytimes-dot-com handle like this is if nytimes set it up!

Dylan Freedman@dylanfreedman.nytimes.com

Update: I'm now @dylanfreedman.nytimes.com!

I think is one of the nicer verification options. I do wonder what happens if ever Dylan leaves NYT and the @dylanfreedman.nytimes.com domain no longer exists

The likely answer is it would go unnoticed for years. When someone does finally figure it out they'll be afraid to remove it because something critical probably depends on it.

It is not the hardest thing in the world to remove a DNS record and can likely be automated while removing access to enterprise emails and services when an employee leaves.
