Design a Go-Away MIB, register it with IANA, convince equipment vendors to support the MIB such that there is a filter table of allowed addresses for SNMP queries and anyone not on that list gets the Go-Away MIB. The MIB just needs a String that says Go Away (or your choice of message) and a few other items that return random numbers. Or someone could do a Tony Bates impression and collect the naughty SNMP prober data from various providers and post a weekly hall of shame report to this list. If there are a significant number of non-providers then this list could also be posted on a USENET snmp group and on a web page.
