For normal sites, if one of their IP addresses gets blacklisted, the 
sites are generally the ones that deal w/ getting it removed from those 
lists.

Who deals w/ getting blacklisted Tor network IP addresses removed from 
those lists, if anyone?

Most users have seen sites refuse to allow connections from a specific 
Tor IPa.  Sometimes they state the reason as being the specific IPa on a 
blacklist.
Often, if you force a new exit relay in TBB, then you can connect to the 
site.

So what happens to all the Tor network addresses that get blacklisted as 
a result of abuse (which is quite common).
Someone / something must be dealing with those issues, or else much of 
the network would eventually be blacklisted.
