Yes, Sean - they are.  But it is far, far more productive for the
source of this abuse to be choked off.  Call it the difference between
using mosquito repellant and draining a huge pool of stagnant water
just outside your home.

How can I, as an ISP, stop abuse that is carried out over HTTPS?

There are technological solutions for intercepting HTTPS traffic, but
I don't think we want to put them to even wider use.
