I think part of the point of this blacklist is similar to other 
blacklists. It makes providers remove their head from their ass and
actually start cleaning up their networks.

When a provider hosts a phishing site for _weeks on end_ and does 
_nothing_ despite being notified repeatedly, sometimes a blacklist is the 
only cluebat strong enough to get through the provider's thick skull.
