[–] wmf 8y ago ↗ Nothing, because ISPs don't care about Bitcoin. They neither profit from it nor incur any noticeable costs. [–] bitxbitxbitcoin 8y ago ↗ They could be paid by parties that don't like Bitcoin, though... [–] wmf 8y ago ↗ I don't think that makes sense either for ISPs or for the third party. ISPs are evil, but they're not cackling supervillain evil.
