Replace single per-post priv_post with per-V_x (pub_x, priv_x). Post
header publishes pub_post_set; comments declare pub_x_index; CDN
propagation nodes verify group_sig + identity_sig against named pubkey
before forwarding. Kills bandwidth-amplification DoS from admitted-but-
malicious FoF members.
Dual-derivation wrap slot (read → CEK, sign → priv_x) with shared
structure Layer 3 inherits. Comments encrypted under CEK_comments so
Mode 2 comments are genuinely FoF-read-gated, not just FoF-sign-filtered.
Author-signed revocation diff appended to post; CDN honors per-chain
revocation. Tradeoff: pub_x_index is a per-post voucher-chain pseudonym,
re-randomized across posts. Accepted.
Layer 3 banner added noting wrap-slot structure is now superseded by
Layer 2's canonical form; full reconciliation deferred.

Replace DM-wrapped VouchGrant with HPKE (RFC 9180) per-recipient
wrappers in the voucher's bio post. Recipient anonymity via HPKE key
privacy; readers trial-decrypt per persona. 48B per wrapper, one
ephemeral pubkey per batch. Scan gated to follows + manual gesture.
Bucket padding + per-publish shuffle for size/position opacity.

Security:
- Reaction signatures: ed25519 sign/verify (sign_reaction, verify_reaction_signature)
Backward-compatible — unsigned reactions from old nodes still accepted
- Comment signature verification: verify_comment_signature now called on receipt
- Reaction removal authorization: only reactor or post author can remove
- BlobHeader author verification: lookup actual author from storage, don't trust payload
Lock contention (4 fixes):
- ManifestPush discovery: cm lock released before PostFetch I/O
- Pull request handler: load under lock, filter without lock, brief re-lock for is_deleted
- Pull sender: split into two brief locks (store posts, then batch upstream+sync)
- Engagement checker: batch all chunk results, single lock for writes
Data cleanup:
- Post deletion cleans post_downstream, post_upstream, seen_engagement tables
- Added TODO-hardening.md documenting remaining DOS/security/lock/data issues
