The ISP change is less iffy. I don't get much spam directly from ISPs. All
it needs is a clause that specifies that the ISP can only send messages that
directly concern the details of their customer's current account.
BS. If i don't give permission to my ISP to send me
such notifications by e-mail and they are still doing that, i call it spam. And besides that, it is very easy for a legitimate ISP to get permission from their customers to send them e-mail
(to use an ISP, you
first have to sign a contract, then please add an option there which grants them to send me mail).
Maybe there is one more way to "solve" this problem:
what if a new generation of processors will be able to remap their opcodes? (i mean, every cpu instruction is identified by an opcode, now what if we could make the processor able to reprogram those opcode "ids"?) With this, foreign code isn't able to run on the target machine because it doesn't know the opcode table used, but normal executable code (x86) can be translated by the OS to the current opcode-set used by the processor.
