This is not about third party X complaining to the hoster about their network being scanned. The hoster itself is automatically monitoring all their machines for outgoing network scans, as these scans are prohibited by their terms of use.

I do wonder how much of this is related to the scarcity of IPv4 address space, prevalence of reputation systems and fear of ending up being labeled as "bad". When we move to IPv6, perhaps hosting providers would be more relaxed knowing that it doesn't matter so much if a /64 or even a /56 ends up bad in a reputation system, because for other customers you have other address space.

Thanks, Iain.
