I never understood why not the upstreams of "bulletproof hosts" simply disconnect / de-peer the entire AS until they clean up their act? Why won't their BGP neighbors take action?
If you can't get ScumBagISP-A to clean up their act, go to ScumBagISP-Upstream-B, and then the next hop ScumBagISP-Upstream-Nexthop-C, and the next, until you find a responsible carrier who can de-peer?
