In this scenario I'm held liable, even though I never authorized the mailing, never paid for the mailing, had nothing whatsoever to do with the mailing.

The simple answer to this is what did YOU DO as the program owner to stop this behavior. What did you DO that you can PROVE. again What did you DO that you can PROVE. Did you document? Did you report can spam violations to the proper authorities?? What did you do? Term and account?? LOL Kept the joins though LOL
This isn't being treated as a game.
And I will say it again. I dont' care who you are. YOU WILL NOTICE MAIL TRAFFIC immediatly. I don't care if you TopBucks 2005 Or CE circa 1997. 5 joins or 5000 joins a day. If you are not noticing, you NOT DOING YOUR JOB. end story. The Big Mystical Company that is so busy that they didn't even notice the new affiliate with the 100 joins doesn't exist. Hell if I sent Bang/OX 35 joins ( only using them as example due to size) they would notice and don't think they wouldn't. if you do your fooling yourself.
If you detect non compliant mail traffic. Document urls, term the affilaite, and report to authorites. Was that difficult??? nope. and keep this with your other important records it serves as an excellent paper trail which PROVES your stance on this type of promotion and traffic. It might not make you the "cool" kid on the block, but the point will get across to the proper people. Protect your business. Follow the law.
