The "secret list" meme is fed and nurtured
by drama-mongers who
incessantly scream "OMG!!! SECRET LIST!!! EVERYONE KNEW SHE WAS GOING TO
BLOCK!!!! 5 PEOPLE SUPPORTED THE BLOCK!! DUROVA IS TAKING THE FALL FOR
THEM!!!"
Wikia currently supports over 3500 mailing lists; the question is, are
those promoting the "secret list" meme deliberately malicious or
irreparably clueless?
You can generally figure a few with an agenda exploiting the naive. The
agenda can be as simple as having fun.
