If they did their support costs would explode. It is block the customer,
educate the customer why they were blocked, exterminate the customers PC,
unblock the customer. No doubt there'll be a repeat of the same in short
time.
This is actually the opposite. (though I'm biased) But the support costs
will decrease because you'll get less complaints inbound and less
customers complaining about slow connections because their PC's are
filling them with junk.
