> Then, crack the whip on domestic telcos, ISPs and hosters. Whoever hosts anything connected with more than 200 users has to have a 24/7/365 abuse hotline that has the manpower and authority to investigate abuse claims and remediate them (i.e. disconnect whoever is causing the problem until this party has remediated the issue on their end) in less than four hours.

I think this makes small-scale hosting unaffordable. It would probably cost circa $150k to staff that hotline, which is then the lower bound on labor cost for the provider. That implies a $750/yr bill to each of those 200 customers before technical costs.
