It's yet another example of lumping the e-marketers in with the 
fraudulent spammers, and assuming they're one in the same in search of 
"a solution". The e-marketing segment is a different beast (and a much 
tinier problem) to the problem of all that forged garbage. The folks 
who are already hiding themselves won't deal with opt-out lists, other 
than to grab them to spam to them, also. Opt-out lists would be great 
with the e-marketing segment, but 100% compliance in that segment 
woldn't even be noticed if we don't fix the bigger problem.
