Precedent, Randy, Precedent !
UUnet and few others a long time ago had a differing definition of
"peering" that most of us thought, at the time...
But were so BIG, we accepted their routes, anyway.

A secret black list is a real bugger if:
No one is allowed to mention it exists.
If you get on it, there is now way off, no "right of redress".
No one can -tell- you you are on it.
No one can tell you if you -aren't-.....
And if you -somehow- figure out your on it,
they can't admit it,
or the -reason- you are on it,
or take you off even if they wanted.
Any and all of the above.
On a lighter note, the US Senate recently
unsealed the American McCarthy Hearing records.
