What about providers who knowingly host massive spam operations, because
it's profitable?  As in:

	http://www.spamhaus.org/statistics/networks/

We've been down this road before.  Unless there is prompt, concerted,
collective action (as there was AGIS) then there is zero reason for those
behind such operations to do anything but keep collecting dirty money.

So it's all good and well to *know* where the problems are: that's
useful.  But if the goal is to actually make the problems go away,
then that'll require fingers on keyboards implementing null routing,
firewalling, blacklisting etc.
