As with open source software, some RBLs are run responsibly and with great diligence to accuracy, and some are.... not so much. You are familiar with this distinction in Usenet software, I believe.

For the purpose of comparison you may consider ORDB to be the FirstClassBBS (or perhaps the QWK Offline Reader) of realtime blackhole lists.
