If you are with a ISP that does not practice BCP 38 are you willing
to risk your neck that you won't be subject to a "aiding and abetting"
charge?  All of us here know that spoofing address like this is a
criminal activity.  We are all experts in the field and the courts
apply higher standards to us than they do to Joe Blogs.  We know
machines get compromised.  We know how to block spoofed traffic
from compromised machines.
