> We disagree. I assume that there is a singular attacker who is able to somehow learn the list of volunteers before the deadline and can act within that time frame to add or remove volunteers

So I suppose, in the last term, Akamai (my employer) could ask me for the list and force "things" to happen.  Is that what you mean?

After the list is publicized, could any large employer pressure various volunteers in their employee to step down?  If so, is that a single attacker controlling multiple agents?
