It seems that this is ultimately a logistics problem that could be solved by restricting/controlling what entities are able to become valid nodes. I suspect that if Big Provider weren't so intent on ripping off consumers and thus allowing every one to have their own static IP v6 address that establishing identity and limiting node membership to specific identities would solve this problem. It's funny how many problems relate back to identity.
