Then they'd just resort to hijacking address space.

Oh wait, they already do that and get away with it....

(And a threat of withholding IP address space from long-haul providers isn't as
credible - they have much less need for publicly routed IP addresses than
either eyeball farms or content farms, so you'll have to find some other way to
motivate them to not accept a hijacked route announcement...)
