Are there any big networks that drop or penalize announcements like this?

It's possible you could get your peering request denied for this. I
have put *reasonable* prefix aggregation into peering requirements for

addresses and originate 32 /24's, that is *not* reasonable.

to originate everything as distinct /24 prefixes, to reduce the effect of
a potential bgp hijack.
