FWIW I never bought the idea that blacklists were passive and

Consider other reputation systems, such as credit agencies.
Sure, a lender chooses to use information provided by a credit agency
so why blame the credit agency in any case?
I blame the credit agency if it _lies_.
I blame ISPs who lie, too (such as claiming that the string ".cjb.net"
is such a strong sign of spam that no message containing it can be
delivered; you've lost two customers that I can name (and probably
many more) over that sort of policy).
