Interesting hypothesis, though I see no easy way to confirm it except surveying the users, which probably isn't something one wants to do.
Anecdotally, I believe this to be true as well. I also believe that it’s common for unsophisticated users to just start marking list emails as spam stop seeing them instead of figuring out how to unsubscribe. Which really sucks for everyone else.
