A start would be to make it criminal negligence worldwide to operate a network that can be abused even after several notices about this fact.
This would be approximately equivalent to making it criminal negligence to build a street wide enough to accomodate two car bombs at once. Except, of course, that the latter case is far more important than some search engine's web page. The current move to try to improve traceability of packets is the right solution. Any solution that involves worldwide laws is a non-starter.
