I set up my own ISP (AS28715) so I could run Tor exits etc without any
trouble.

Yes. Every abuse ticket is a person answering that abuse ticket instead of
helping a customer who is potentially paying for support.

It's also that some of the abuse emails can be quite threatening (e.g.
blacklisting the entire /24 or reporting the "crime" to local Police etc)
some of the smaller ISPs can get intimidated by those threats.

In the UK; No one.

No. But is polite to do so.

Depends on the ISPs policies / any applicable laws. (In the UK and at least
as far as my ISP is concerned; no-one)

AFAIK; No. In the UK I guess one could appeal to Court if an ISP wasn't
preventing its network from being used to your detriment but I'm not sure
how far you'd get.

Yes. Lots depending on the country.

Very much so.
