This will backfire on them. Going after paying customers who understand this technology well enough to implement something like this is bad business! Word of mouth is a strong selling tool and to go after those customers who potential customers listen to will turn away a lot of them. "My ISP is horrible" is magnified 10x when it comes from a "techie".
I am still trying to figure out how much money they plan on saving? If I had a choice I would switch, so they would lose $40 as opposed to gaining 7 for a new IP? Plus I would never recommend them to anyone who had a choice!
