Our imminent problem is not proxy in nature. It's very specific to a few ISPs in China. These guys get paid to do what they're doing, so we have no shortage of new ranges to find and ban on a daily basis.
It's just tedious because we can't ban the entire IP range owned by a particular ISP, because the IPs are spread to other locations geographically. So it's a matter of getting spammed enough to figure out a network pattern and take care of it, doing the same whenever another pattern emerges.
They're still contained within a few particular ISPs, though, so there isn't a lack of hope that this particular infestation will end.
