There already is that capability to some extent. Between geoip and the RIR's, one can get a pretty good handle on which /8 or /16 blocks need to be blocked at your firewall. In fact the linux based router's we use have a specific "Country Blocking" feature which I use to block large swathes of the Net from our systems. -- Drew "Nothing in life is to be feared.
