If that means users get charged "clean up" fees instead of a "security" fee, that's fine."I urge all my competitors to do that." The problem isn't that this is a bad idea, the problem is that it's a bad idea to be the first to do it. You want to be the last to do it. You want all other companies to do it first - to charge their customers more (while you don't charge more and take away some of their business) to pay for this cost.
Heck, at this point, I'd be OK with it being a regulatory issue. Perhaps we need regulators to step in and put forth something like the following: 1. An ISP who receives an abuse complaint against one of their customers shall not be held liable for damages to the complainant or other third parties IF: A. Said ISP investigates and takes remedial action for valid complaints within 24 hours of receipt of said complaint. B. Said ISP responds to said abuse complaint within 4 hours of their determination including the determination made and what, if any, remedial action was taken. and C. If the complaint was legitimate, the remedial action taken by said ISP causes the reported abuse to stop. 2. Any ISP who takes remedial action against one of their customers as outlined in the previous section shall charge their customer a fee which shall not be less than $100 and not more than the ISP's full costs of investigation and remedial action. I'm not saying I necessarily like the idea of more regulation, but, if we as an industry are unwilling to solve this because of the above competitive concerns, then, perhaps that is what is necessary to get us to act.
