While I understand your frustration, lest we not forget, providers

black and white as you make it, unfortunately.
Unfortunately, if ISPs don't do _something_ to "clean up their own backyards", I hate to think of what the alternative may be.
With that, as Sean points out, providers are trying to address the
issues
in an business-savvy manner and some do seem to have reasonable (IMO) solutions underway. But be careful what you ask for, some of these solutions you're mandating might very well resemble SiteFinder-style schema's (or far worse) in order to justify the investment by the providers.
Indeed. It's a hairy problem, but an important one that needs to be addressed. - - ferg -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: PGP Desktop 9.5.3 (Build 5003) wj8DBQFF16eOq1pz9mNUZTMRAhNYAKCSmQieIM8K44H4AnRWcWbXVwax8wCglsF6 BMb6JC95v5IrtIH2x+MYMw0= =T5dQ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- "Fergie", a.k.a.
