I agree that an ISP should disconnect a user dumping raw sewage into
the water system.  However, that's a big difference from providing an
end user a "clean internet" which is what the article proposed.  To me,
that means providing filtered internet services.  That's a transit
solution to an end-node problem.  Disconnecting the abusing end-node(s)
is an end-node solution.
