Start with "implement RFC 2827 yourself, and start pushing other SPs
to implement it" maybe?

RFC2827 is about source address filtering which
is not really the same as BGP route announcement
filtering. Unfortunately, I have not come across
any RFC's with a thorough discussion of route
filtering. It is mentioned briefly in RFC 3013,
but section 4.5 only suggests filtering routes for
private address space. RFC 4778 also mentions it,
but again, there is no in depth discussion. Perhaps
it is time for an RFC dedicated to route filtering
practices?
