There's nowhere near enough honey pots. I'm running endless on my home server, and a WordPress "login" that just delays 5 seconds before denying on a VPS. I've run Cowrie and a full blown WordPress honey pot in the past.
If everyone who could did run honey pot(s) the scanners, spammers and bottom feeding low life's would find it unprofitable to do simple, dumb things. Same as if everyone picked up every phone call and chatted up the scammers.
