To add to my earlier comment, I can confirm that it does in fact do what it says on the tin, so to speak. I signed up, got a confirmation email, confirmed, and got access. No spam deluge ensued; I'll be sure to update you as soon as this changes.
Patrick, I did find that clicking the confirmation email link and then confirming gave me a page that said at the top "Confirm your email address! You have to click the confirm link in the email[...]". The supplementary "Did that already?" link worked fine; it was just slightly weird to get that message immediately after, you know, clicking the link.
Sorry about that: you were in a race with an HTTP request from MailChimp. You won the race (yay?), so when Rails generated that page for you, it was unaware that you'd confirmed. I'll try doing some AJAXiness to prevent that in the future, but it won't go live today.
