*all* ISP?  At best, you'll find "most", or "enough do it that trying to
advertise less than the minimum won't work well" - which is what you really
care about.  About the only thing that "all" ISPs agree on are the de-facto
requirements to plug the router into an appropriate electrical supply - there's
probably a lot of mom&pop ISPs out there that don't do any filtering of BGP
because they're so small that they don't need to talk BGP to their upstream...
