I believe this is the main issue here.

Spammers already have and use the technology to circumvent all this, so
they don't even need to invent new tricks.

As long as there are drone armies and unsuspecting "stupid" users, these
kind of solutions, although interesting and helpful, are useless to stop
actual spam.

Another issue is that non of the people I talked this over with see how
this can work unless globally adopted by everyone. An adoption of this
system over a few years simply won't work. It needs to be over-night and
that's not going to happen.
