I wonder how long a popularish blacklist operator would last if they,
oh say, blacklisted all of google or microsoft before they got some
very threatening letters from their legal staff. An hour? A day? A week?

You may have the right to list them and change your mind in your own
good time, but they also have the right to defend their reputation civilly
too. With great power comes great responsibility and all that.
