With spam being such a political hot-button these days, I'm sure a
very public "outing" of these offenders will be very effective at
getting it to stop, especially when the public knows that the spam is
sent using techniques to hide its origins by stealing network
services.

Last fall, I had some local candidate spam me.  After my second
complaint to his ISP, his web site was yanked and all access cut off.
This was two days before the election.  Needless to say, he was not
pleased. ;-)  At least he didn't hide behined a criminal spammer.
