IPPM,

Here's a ref to the paper I mentioned on why a lack of one-way 
monitors that are robust against cheating is holding back Internet 
evolution. It concludes operators need "rest-of-path" monitors at 
their borders. It is written from an economics perspective.

Also, at the end, I've given two refs to possible solutions to this problem.

Alternatively, you may be interested in our work in BT and at UCL on 
how to do this without all the complexity of a network of trusted 
echo reflectors:
