No, not usually. Few ISPs are willing to risk blacklisting.
Just like scrapers (and a lot of VPNs are quietly using their custom VPN clients to sell your own IP [and data] to scrapers) it's mostly a "don't ask don't tell" situation for IP sourcing. You use a multitude of IP providers and if a scandal happens you just say "We didn't know!" and move on to the next. Almost always grey-market, very rarely through legitimate providers.
- r_lee 4mo agowhy is this downvoted? I'm not aware of a single ISP that would willingly let VPN providers use their ip blocks for their exit nodes

- tiffanyh 4mo agoI see DataPacket.com have VPN clients. Does anyone know if this is any issue for non-vpn users of datapacket.com? https://www.datapacket.com/case-study/nordvpn https://www.datapacket.com/case-study/nordvpn

Probably not that much worse than other VPS providers with trashed IP reputations, eg. digital ocean, vultr, ovh. If you're blocking bots, the first thing to block is any datacenter ip ranges, not just known VPN servers.
