This is hardly surprising: many of them are spammers-for-hire, many of
them use invasive tracking/spyware, and none of them actually care in
the slightest about privacy or security -- after all, it's not *their*
data, why should they?

Which is why we now have GDPR.  Care, or get fined.

Not quite so simple, though, is it. If you want to make a complaint then you have to get your EU national data protection regulator interested. Even the worst-leaking ESPs are unlikely to generate many complaints, I suspect. And if they are located outside the EU with no direct business presence within the EU then it requires the regulator to make approaches to foreign governments who might or might not be willing to cooperate.

In the UK the data protection regulator is the ICO <www.ico.org.uk> and, whilst it is perhaps one of the better UK regulatory agencies, I still wouldn't hold out much hope of getting them to do anything like this (where multiple levels of evidence would need to be collected) in individual cases.

Unfortunately it's not that easy; the few large remaining mail hosters at best have opaque procedures when it comes to accepting mail.

Sadly so but I think that if you have a decent and consistent volume (and follow all the usual good hygiene requirements) then it should be possible to get on their automated radar in a positive way. It seems to me that it's small volume senders who have the real deliverability problems.
