1) Isnt going to bring you any sales, why do you think they opted out in the first place.
2) Is just going to bring an insane amount of heat to you and the program.
About 8 months ago I had a mailer mail over 3 million remove addresses to one of my programs.. Talk about a huge mess.. Using a global remove system is one of the best things an affiliate program can do.

Well, I cant say it's the smartest thing to do...will probably bring antis up the ass from them doing so....but a lot of guys who are recently getting into things and the other few who believe they are immune to certain ethics ... could possibly do such things...It maybe the right thing to do, but that does not mean everyone will follow...
I've seen people use remove lists to mail and promote Spam blocking/removing software and evidence eliminator type programs ...even came across a few who ended up mailing them just because they were "out" of recipients to mail that day.
Also a person submitting their email to a removes list does not always mean that the recipient is not interested in other products, they are just not interested in the specific one that they want to be removed from ... that's why you often see guys rerun their lists with different sponsors before honoring removes.
