I'm thinking of something like an icon to denote that an account is from an official government domain.
Examples of government domains:
US: .gov and .mil
Many countries: .gov.[two letter country code]
Japan: .go.jp
This isn't a complete list, obviously.
I'm intentionally not proposing further for now, though there are both official and unofficiallists of domains. The closest I found to a multi-country registry is this repo but it's years out of date.
This would help deter scammers from posing as government agencies by squatting on similar-looking domains like usa.got or gpv.uk and catching inattentive people (especially seniors with poor vision, who might not immediately see the difference).
