I'm sure I'm on any given block list, and I'm sure that I deserve it, but outsourcing thinking for yourself to others is always going to open you up for manipulation.
You don't even know these people who are putting names on lists, yet people blindly accept them as authoritative. Why wouldn't bad actors start injecting bad data into such a mindless automaton? Especially since one bad user can condemn everyone on an instance to the universal Blocklist.
Documenting stuff like this might be a good eyeopener for people who rely on such lists in such a way.
