You can call a blacklist a blamange. It does not have any effect
whatsoever on the rights of the plaintif with respect to discovery. The
plaintif has the right to argue that what you call a blamange is in fact
a blacklist.

As DNS reputation services, which have experienced litigation 
assessing IP addresses, more prominently start assessing more 
pervasive domain-names, the potential increases.

Perhaps.

But the essential point is that they have established a 
solid business 
model and nobody has any doubt that they have the financial 
resources 
to withstand (and retaliate against) meritless challenges.

This is making assumptions about the financial resources of 
the litigant and their rationale.  A tenable position is 
being prepared for discoveries and ensuring your 
documentation and contracts are concise about the services 
offered.  Out of millions, it would be difficult to estimate 
the costs associated with resolving the term blacklist.  
Perhaps it is a matter of once burnt, twice shy.
