Good question. Not one I have a great answer for. I think the answer
comes down to relationships, not technology -- listbot can't allow
someone to bulk-load addresses in via their "transfer the list to
listbot" mechanism unless (a) they've verified the load is
legitimate, or (b) the admin has a track record with them.
Unfortunately, this puts a real human being in the decision loop, not
a computer. And that's expensive. But it's the only clean way to
guarantee this can't happen.
