 Could you run similar comparisons with Internet access providers using
 Carrier-grade NAT? Could you tell use what qualifies as abuse?

 If abuse is âattackingâ your honeypots then your system is simply going to
 fail hard in the next year. Even older Internet access providers are
 [http://www.numerama.com/tech/145703-free-peut-attribuer-la-meme-adresse-
 ip-a-plusieurs-abonnes.html being forced] to do Carrier-grade NAT as IPv4
 are now a scarce resource. You can't punish millions of users as soon as
 one bad actor hits your honeypots.

 Tor is just being slightly ahead of what the IPv4 Internet is going to
 look like pretty soon.
