I want to encompass both webhosting firm and ISP.   I agree it is
clumsy to introduce a new acronym.   Please offer a suggestion here.

Here I have a particular psychological point in mind.   I want to

to the "polluter pays" principle from the present "victim pays".
If I use "polluter" the audience may more easily make the mental
connection.
