This is more or less how spam was almost solved in 2006 by Blue Frog [1]. Instead of trying to fight the spam distribution, they fought people who buy spam by contacting them directly for every email sent to them by users. The resulting DDoS and shutdown of the service was sad but inevitable. Still makes me feel nostalgic for the brief moment of hope some human behaviour might get better as the internet evolves, and makes me wish some corporation which claims to be socially responsible picked it up, supported and defended it.
