A more productive approach might, and I emphasize *might*, be to identify
those allocations which are hijacked and/or in use by dedicated abuse
operations. This would have the desirable side effect of depriving those
operations of resources, however it would also saddle subsequent owners
with the thorny problem of trying to use heavily-blacklisted allocations.
And as others in the thread have observed, it would only delay the
inevitable for a while.
