I imagine if admin blocked IP addresses from foreign countries, it would significantly reduce the amount of spoofed IP addresses.
As a FWIW, there would still only be one public facing IP address.Quote:

Your ISP only provides you with one IP address.
Now go out and hack something :)

Doe sthat make sense?
