Yes, blocking spoofed packets helps. But it is not an end-game.
it's not even middle-game
It provides the identity of the party to sue for negligence, should the damage elsewhere be severe.
and lawsuits have always been such a major contributor to internet advances in the past. makes me think of suing the cemetaries and coffin manufacturers in "night of the living dead." does not scale. you might remember or look up smb's presentation on 'pushback' at some nanog or another (those anonymous hotel rooms kinda blur, especially before first coffee). that's not perfect, but it scales. and it's an engineering approach to a technology problem, always a good sign. randy
