It does surprise me that no enterprising person/group has turned this into a salable feature: "we're the network which shuts down spammers/infected/baddies." I could imagine that there would be customers who would rather give their business to providers who are more active in this regard than less, and that would be a way for a service provider to differentiate themself from the rest of the pack.
People try that. They then get DDoS'ed. Then they stop. (Thats the people that try to do it by providing internet-based services. People who sell products probably fare slightly better.) Adrian
