Naive question: why isn't there a publicly accessible central repository of bad IPs and domains, stewarded by the industry, operated by a nonprofit, like W3C? Yes it wouldn't be enough by itself ("bad" is a very subjective term) but it could be a popular well-maintained baseline.

For what it's worth, I'm also guilty of this, even if I made my site to replace one that died.
