At least over here, consumer-grade ISPs (think DSL with dynamic IP addresses) apply ingress filters, while real ISPs don't. If you're lucky, you get egress filters at some border routers, but it's not standard at all. Customer-facing interfaces are generally unfiltered. (But I have to admit that we recently ran into filters at an upstream's upstream, so there's at least some BCP 38 adoption.)
