It's the RIPE membership (the LIRs), that change these policies, not the
  NCC. The NCC has to action them.

Has nothing to do with blackmail. At the end of the day, it's a decision
driven by RIPE members, who take an active role.

Policies change, if you don't like'm you can try to change them again.
Just requires a majority approval for a policy proposal.

Kind regards,
