> So, how isn't it being addressed?

The idea of Critical Infrastructure gets addressed in many countries. 
Some of them do not include ISP's in the equation as they are a private 
business. Some day, but can't force ISP's to cooperate.

Whatever gets done and re-done is local, whether by ISP or country and 
there is almost nothing getting done to treat this as a global, macro 
problem, and actually put in measures to combat it.

Hence International Infrastructure.
