The people who own the IPs listed in a DNSBL don't have a contract

Listing in a DNSBL (that's used to the detriment of the listee,
e.g. for blocking email) is itself a punishment, and the DNSBL
operator clearly has standing to list in the DNSBL.

There's no "fine" involved in any case, because nobody is forced to
pay anything.
