I could understand if an ISP was allowing spam from a portion of there network. But in this case the only thing that the ISP did is host a website, the SPAM was sent from from a third party's network. The ISP did terminate the customer but in the meantime the entire NSP's network has been blacklisted, for a rouge webhosting account does sound a bit harsh.
A spam blocking service that worked that way would be useless. Anyone could get any site they didn't like blacklisted simply by spamvertising it. Anyone who uses a spam blocking list that works that way is DoSing themselves. DS
