that ban per IP?
From my legitimate mail server in Thailand, that has never been
blacklisted as far as I know:
mail<on>45: telnet mail.redfish-solutions.com 25
Trying 66.232.79.143...
Connected to mail.redfish-solutions.com (66.232.79.143).

From another mailserver I administrate, but located in Germany:

No need to remind that any person seriously looking at spam problem
know that spam is mainly originated from USA, even if relayed through
other, possibly Asian, countries.
Yes I am quite pisse dby such attitude.

It's not a matter of cultural imperialism, if that's what you're getting at.
It's an acknowledgment of the importance of the "rule of law" in cyberspace.
Some countries enforce anti-spam, anti-trespass laws. Others lack them
or don't enforce them.
When these countries put some teeth into the enforcement of their laws,
then they will stop being blacklisted.
