This question is part reality, part surreality.

Let me ask you this: What would you do when you have alerted
(via [email protected] contacts) a notable ISP in the U.S. (not a tier one,
and not just one of them) about KNOWN, VERIFIABLE, and RECURRING
criminal activity in their customer downstreams? 

And the downstream(s) do not respond? And the criminal activity
continues?

The most obvious answer is: Gather evidence, contact law
enforcement.

Right?

I just wanted to reach out the NANOG on this and see what you
thought... How would you handle it?
