The capabilities offered by the protocol you're envisioning already exist in the form of firewall rules and BGP peering agreements.
Most websites and networks would suffer more from blocking residential ISP traffic than they do from misuse of residential ISP traffic, though...
- codedokode 1y agoNo. If you have majority of customers in country A, but the attack comes from country B, it is better to cut off B to keep the web services working. BGP doesn't allow to stop attacks this way as I understand.
- nemomarx 1y agowhat if the attack comes from country A too? my understanding is they try to get botnets and residential proxies in large Western countries to avoid being filtered by IP range already.
