Starving spammers of IPs is not really a solution to spam anyway. Reforming smtp is. And it is long long long overdue...
What I don't understand is that pretty much everyone has an incentive to eliminate spam. ISPs to reduce traffic, emails providers to produce a better service and spend less time dealing with spam. Users for obvious reasons. Only the NSA enjoys the current unencrypted status quo. Why doesn't it happen? Why are we stuck with a 30y protocol?
