Yes. The Habeas use on Topica is either new, or restricted to confirmed-opt-in lists (which I believe is a Habeas requirement). I've had more than a few Topica lists show up in my inbox unwanted. In fact, my guess is that the reason Topica is currently silently dropping all email from somewhere.com is that they decided that instead of fixing their lists, they'd just remove the complainer.

everyone else's.
