Whitelisting means several things:

1) It's a huge operational scalability problem for them (and for
content providers, if they have to do it for every single carrier out
there)
2) It takes a while from when you e-mail them to when they actually
whitelist you, if they actually do it.
3) They have the discretion not to put you in the whitelist. Fingers
crossed that they won't be so evil.

And I argued against the whitelist in Vodafone Betavine, and it's all
tied to their User-Agent changes.
