Sounds good. Now we just need someone to send around a press release stating that 1 out of 3 (asshole statistic) corporations, government organizations, and educational institutions are unwittingly helping Cyber-Terrorists commit their evil deeds; and 25% of those (another asshole statistic) don't care that they're aiding and abetting these criminals. Basically, we want to shame these companies into fixing their networks. Public image is a killer.
