A number of people have tried to arrange a boycott against
AGIS. It's even been somewhat successful -- more and more
people seem to be switching providers.
The spam hasn't lessened one bit.
We've tried complaining. We've tried filtering. We've tried
sending all the spam right back to [insert spammer here.]
NONE OF IT HAS HELPED.
So, we've got two choices: barricade ourselves inside so many
firewalls that old friends with new accounts have to call us
long-distance in order to send us e-mail, or work towards a
legal solution.
Since I've got lots of old friends (and potential new ones)
that I want to get e-mail from, my choice is made.

We've just got to make sure that any law which passes does not
in any way harm legitimate uses of the Internet.
