I refuse to remove myself from every spam list that gets made. That would be several per day, 365 days per year, soon to to be dozens per day. Rather, I expect users to behave themselves and I expect ISP's to educate their users to behave themselves (or cut them off if they won't) and I expect NSP's to cut off ISP's who won't educate and control their user populations. "Receiver pays" isn't just a direct marketing panacea, it's a license to remove people from your routing table if they won't stop wasting your money. http://www.vix.com/spam/ has more details.
