On the other hand, if this BCP is successful, we can expect people to
wave it around in court cases to try to establish that some blacklist
does or does not act in accordance with industry standards. So please
concentrate on making it clear, and keeping in mind the C, not too far
from what respectable BLs do now.
Try this rewrite (gets rid of a legal note)
<t>A DNSBL without DNSBL users does not
block (or otherwise impair) email or any other Internet service.
A DNSBL user voluntarily uses the DNSBL data to guide their decisions,
and the user therefore MUST assume responsibility for the
consequences.</t>
<t>DNSBL operators are expressing an opinion through the
publication of a DNSBL. However,
it is through abiding by the guidelines set forth in this BCP that
the operators of a DNSBL may gain the trust of their users.</t>
