Summary
There is no single way to determine whether a hotspot is spoofing. This HIP therefore looks at several types of data that are typically looked at when looking for spoofers and combines them into a score, the Trust Score, which is designed to tell how likely a hotspot is to be spoofing, in order for them to be manually added to the denylist later.
The HIP doesn't make any automatic additions to the denylist, nor does it invalidate witnesses that it deems to be spoofing ; it only attributes a Trust Score to each hotspot.
Additionally, the HIP provides convenient ways for hotspot owners to report hotspots to the denylist as well as prove their own integrity, directly in-app.
