The problem is most of the botnet zombies are in places with very little rule of law like eastern europe/russia/south america/china. It is an exercise in futility and the richest customers just opt to just spend money on more protection than shutting down the zombies. If the zombie is in the US, hosts like Google or Amazon will take 1+ month to respond.
Then IP-range block those places until they get their affairs in order.

It feels like everyone's rebuilding their own desktop experience. Kind of Minecraft with folders and text files. The really interesting part of this is how little people talk about what they're doing, and it doesn't feel secretive in any way.
