Not in our experience, valid email addresses are trivial to fake.
Slightly creepy to require, but more of a pain to fake is a Facebook or
LinkedIn account. I've done this (OAuth 2.0) in Java servlets, but not
Python yet....
On the other hand, isn't user data supposed to require a login to view?
i.e., was the inappropriate content being served or just stored on the
public server?
