Well, it's not really an Ops problem. Ops folk worry about packets and stuff like that, not social and legal issues such as this. Within organizations such as Sprint, they're usually not empowered to take the kinds of actions you want.
I hate to continue this argument (perhaps we should all move it over to isp-admin-list () aol com, which is a good place for real admin types to discuss these types of issues), but I have to disagree -- just as with a standard pingflood, the intent is irrelevant, the flood must be stopped. A very good case could be made that isp-inter.net is slowly packetflooding world.std.com on port 25. -- J.D.
