I've seen a couple of different ways of dealing with the previously unsubscribed but nothing that works exactly for what we're looking for. In respect to anti spam laws like CAN-Spam we're looking for a resolution that allows us to show the subscription checkbox only if the lead has previously unsubscribed. We don't want to automatically change these unsubscribe field based on form fill because we don't want to have to have the language at the bottom of the form that tells leads submissions will subscribe them to our stream. We also don't want to offer leads who are already subscribed a very obvious way to unsubscribe (it's still included in the footer of our emails). Has anyone set up anything similar to this? Are we be overcautious? Would love to hear what everyone else is doing to respect can-spam laws and such.

Maybe easier than you're framing it. This sounds like the pattern I call self-hiding field: a field whose own visibility is determined by its current value. So if it is checked, it is hidden; if unchecked, it's visible. Right?
