Second, and more importantly: Without spam, where would I get my viagra?
And I'd never meet people like Mary B., who gave me a great stock tip,
and Rev. Nigel Toma from Nigeria (we're working on a secret deal but don't
tell anyone!).

I agree here -- causing intentional damage is offensive.
But immoral?  Not necessarily.
I have Comcast (don't hate me) and had to accept their terms and conditions
which includes their ability to protect me from the evil Internet.

Then again, I didn't notice the outage.  I don't know anyone that uses
AOL or MSN.

Finally, who says that this was intentional?
Comcast uses a SBL.  The blockage could have come from a vigilante SBL
rather than Comcast.  Or it could have been a routing error (they do
optimize their routing tables -- one wrong byte can really screw things up).
