I hope "shunning" MCI means that UK ISPs will put MCI's entire IP space on a do-not-route list,
and that ISPs throughout the E.U., United States, Canada, and Japan will follow suit. It would be nice to see how long MCI will maintain its pink contracts with spammers when it means that the rest of their customers are restricted to connectivity only with each other. If this happens it will also set a useful precedent on how to deal with rogue ISPs.
