alt Hacker NewsCould npm adopt a reverse domain naming system similar to Java's for Maven libraries?
com.foo.bar
That would require domain verification, but it would add significant developer friction.
Also mandatory Dune reference:
"Bless the maker and his water"

I don't see how this solves the problem?

Some MFA requirement to publish a new version of the package would be a good idea. In me experience releasing a new version of software is a big enough deal that the product owner is on hand to authorize the release via a separate device no matter how automated the pipeline is.
