einem empfindlichen Übel zu einer Handlung, Duldung oder Unterlassung 
nötigt, wird mit Freiheitsstrafe bis zu drei Jahren oder mit Geldstrafe 
bestraft.
(2) Rechtswidrig ist die Tat, wenn die Anwendung der Gewalt oder die 
Androhung des Übels zu dem angestrebten Zweck als verwerflich anzusehen ist.

(4) In besonders schweren Fällen ist die Strafe Freiheitsstrafe von

2.
    seine Befugnisse oder seine Stellung als Amtsträger mißbraucht.


being forced to spend manhours (= money) to 'delist' from 3rd party dns 
blacklists is 'empflindliche uebel', and yes you are forcing them into a 
'handlung (delisting/acting AGAINST their paying customer), duldung 
(ignoring the fact that you call them and others affected by your block 
'spammers') or 'unterlassung' (interfering with their provider immunity 
and  right to sell services to anyone, anywhere, and keep doing so - as 
long as those don't break the law -there- and even if they do you can 
still sell them services as that's their problem -there- not yours. 
per-se. ;)

now. that's just the blackmail part and just the BRD part... other eu 
memberstates usually have simular laws...

if you knowingly and willingly insert ips into a blackmail 
infrastructure which you have advertised with the argument that you KNOW 
a listing has impact on 1/3rd of the worlds mail delivery, or worse, 
such as spamhaus DROP, where you KNOW a listing causes part of the 
internet to completely drop that traffic, as you advertise it just for 
-that- purpose and know how many nodes use it, that completely falls 
under pretty much any computer sabotage act out there -ever-.

but... ofcourse... to you... some not-even-illegal use of 'smtp' or some 
wintendo virusses that could be out there, are of higher priority than 
keeping the internet working, and not breaking any laws yourself.

keep in mind, we, the owners of the internet, isps and carriers, and yes 
we do OWN it, 'tolerate' blacklists... as long as they don't go around 
making silly demands, such as 'contacting' them, or gaining too much 
influence and starting to 'demand' to disconnect things without even 
bothering to get a court order.

what's next... the RIAA setting up one as well?
