I have no problem with disconnecting known abusers. However, there's lots of other actions implied in the "ISP responsibility" described that are things like filtering port 25, blocking NetBIOS, etc. Some ISPs do this. I'm all for having an AUP and/or TOS that allows you to disconnect abusers. When I was working for various ISPs, I personally disconnected a number of such abusers. However, IMHO, disconnecting abusers is a far cry from "Providing a clean internet".
