They could do that only with an inept ISP. Most US ISP agreements will
say somewhere that either party can terminate the agreement at any time,
for any reason, or for no reason at all. A bad ISP agreement could be a
problem i suppose.
And there *were* such problems in the US in earlier days. The infamous
CyberPromo had a T1 from an NSP back in 1995, and they used it to spam for
quite a long time. Probably the NSP (Sprint?) could not terminate the guy
because of his contract. Who would have thought (then) that someone would
get a T1 and use it to spam? Absurd!
BTW -- Most people back then thought spamming would go away when these
fully-connected spammers lost their T1s. Let that be a warning to those
who think the closing of open relays and the passing of laws will do it.
Spamassassin is the right approach.
