Might be true but if such things would happen in my scope of
resposibility, I'd have no reason to *not* take this offline
immediately. If I know (and there is the problem!)
If you report such a thing at abuse at MYDOMAIN, promised, someone will
wake me up at 4 o'clock and we'll turn it off....
Thats how things should be, isn't it ? ;)

I guess there are far enough responsible people out there, to solve such
issues right away - but only if they have the tools to verify! and the
"rights" to react.. 
Currently we havent..(as the thread-starter noticed) 
This is IMHO not a matter of privacy (in terms of ISP - which we all
are?) but more bureaucracy burdens, legal stuff..

So I also wait what comes up there, I'll support it.
Long discussions, ok, but at some point in time there also has to be a
decision: do we want anonymous IP's in the RIPE region or not ?

Should it be possible to have an anonymous Scam/Spam-IP? I'd say no.
(sure that banks also badly failed to have secure methologies, but thats
not my scope, I have to take care about secure networks & IP ;))
