The elite are aware that a few of us are trying to evade their invasion of our privacy. In some cases, like the one you mentioned, they back down. I'm currently in process of begging one of the major free email providers to unblock my wife's email server's IP address from delivering mail to their recipients.

With that being said, does that solve the mystery? They either enjoy all the begging, or they're on a collective mission to monitor all of our communications (probably both.)
