He's underestimating the level of cooperation ISPs already exert. McColo precisely got hung up upon because of that sort of cooperation. And whereas the CNC-infrastructure of a botnet is clearly the easiest point to attack, it won't really destroy the botnet, it only will make the botnet-herders loose control over their botnet. The real problem lies elsewhere, not in ISP-space.
