Thanks Doug.  I may not agree with your assessment of OAR, but it is good to know you had it in mind.  As for TPA-Labels, it’s been a long time since I looked at that proposal and I’ll be brushing up on it between now and IETF91.

Such information can not safely be trusted unless authorized by DMARC domain, i.e. TPA-Labels which falls under option 1.  TPA-Label has provisions covering OAR requirements among other elements.
