The Internet is no longer a "safe" place, meaning that the sane NSPs/ISPs sanitize their networks rather than trust someone else to do it for them, or trust someone else to never make mistakes.

Indeed, the Internet is not a safe place. It always surprises me when people think otherwise. Regardles, it is a place where someone else's mistake can cost YOU.
Also, there is a sentence that I like, I learned it from a proffessor here, but it is well known: "Never attribute to malice something that can be easily explained by sheer stupidity".
One of the most true I ever heard, and indeed, stupidity does hurt us. Does it matter if it is malicious by /intent/?
