What incentive do the ISPs have to enforce any of this though? 
                                
In fact, they're making money sending bits over these prefixes. 

What incentives could be created that the ISPs wont balk at as it
might affect their accidental revenues from "oh, gee, I didnt know it
was being squatted! <wink>" prefixes?
