Because proving you are right in a court of law costs money.
To prove that UUMCUINT is a Cracker Haven[tm] takes more money

It is cheaper for me to turn crackers attempts in my logs
over to the AttyGen Office and the FBI than deal with a
blacklist of National ISPs that will let loose the landsharks
on a whim. National ISPs will listen to LEAs after they blow me off
like EXXXXS did after a 2 hour cracker spree in my logs elicited
*no* response from the abuse department and security department.
