If someone is suspected of an illegal act, then surely it should be the job of the police to investigate after it's been referred to them. Then if they find reasonable grounds to do so they can obtain a search warrant and seize the suspects equipment.
Do you really want private companies (who main goal is to maintain their profit margins) to be investigating and deciding amongst themselves if someone deserves to have their internet connection terminated?
Ip addresses can and indeed already are faked by various trackers out there already.
