How so? What kind of vectors are you aiming to protect against? if a
server drops behind on updates it is dropped from the main pool,
additionally it is fully possible to run stand-alone keyservers that
doesn't synchronize with any other keyserver.
Peering protocol should be manual as there is a level of trust (not
necessarily a very high bar, but one there still) required between the
operators.
