You say that like "ISPs" are some mythical non-human entity. SOMEONE has to make that decision, and the more educated on the topic of potential threats the person making the decision is, the better the reaction time and mitigation of issues will be. The post above was publicly broadcast in hopes that the person who makes the decision reads HN, not because it is expected that the common everyday Joe reader will do something about it.

ISPs are well aware about these kinds of problems, but don't make decisions based on potential threats. It has to become a real threat first.

  Correction: it has to become a real threat to their bottom-line first. Before that, there's no business incentive to care.
