One must assume most user IP edge proxies are compromised hosts. If someone paid for that list they were almost certainly conned, as the black hats regularly publish that content on their forums.

These folks are generally uninterested in positively contributing to any community, but rather show up to cause trouble for fun and profit.
User API quotas are popular for a reason. =3
