Of lot of this activity does of course stand out from regular traffic, really stand out, especially under bit pattern analysis, not some much as far as the range of possibilities of the whole internet but certainly from the viewpoint of the typical individual user and their normal traffic versus the change of traffic for that individual user when their devices and connections are being abused.
Want to cut down on activity make hardware firewalls a compulsory part of all modems, no firewall no connection to the internet. Including voluntary reporting of all suspicious activity detected by hardware fire walls to the communications regulatory authority, this enables a pattern of expanded activity to be immediately reported so that it can be traced and either the source targeted for investigation or cut off.
