Well there is that, but that should be implicit in pretty much every
report you get that $this or $that host is compromised. This is just a
convenient offering to say "someone out there thinks one of your
machines is holed. You might want to check that out." I'm good friends
with some fully-automated blackholing mechanisms, and even I'm not
crazy enough to just blackhole my own machines on someone else's
say-so.
