set who is accountable

it's clear that there is a conflict of interest by hosting companies and internet providers and policing the connections. they make money off of the spammers too, so what is their incentive to police them?

what we need is a clear chain of command for dealing with these problems. dare i say it? a SPAM CZAR! we at least need a new system to quickly identify and shut down spammers. if it needs to be a small and nimble federal government entity with the authority to shut down connections within 2 hours, then so be it. obviously, we need checks and balances so that the power isn't exploited, but there needs to be some type of system that we don't have at this moment.

There is no such thing as a small and nimble federal government entity.
