I have sent reports to DigitalOcean and Microsoft about the abuse
reported to me that appears on my network.  The only response I'm
interested in is the end of said abuse.

When abuse continues to be seen on a DigitalOcean allocation, that
allocation goes into a file-and-forget ACL.

I investigate further only when a customer reports a problem connecting
with a DigitalOcean netblock.  No such reports yet, by the way.

I respond to abuse reports promptly and completely.  I expect others to
do so, just as promptly and completely.  "Pretty please" is not in my
netadmin vocabulary.
