You would hope so, but I know hosting places that give their customers
a /128 in a shared /64.  They claim that their routers make this hard
to fix.  I don't know the details.

Like I said, whitelisting known good single IPs can probably work, but
it is a major unsolved question how to figure out the size of the
relevant bad range if you see an IP doing bad stuff.

doesn't work.  We've been around this barn enough times that there is
severe soil erosion.
