J.Random ADSL / cable space I dare say.  Though what said cable / adsl
SPs would have to say about "reselling of service is an AUP violation"
is anybody's guess :)

I watched the 'Demo Video' and the addresses shown were from AT&T and Comcast space.  Any idea of  what space they might 
be from in real life or is that part of their secret sauce?

Looks like anonymizer combined with what looks almost like a "rent a
botnet", legit nodes (you sign up to download a client that makes you
part of this botnet, etc)

http://www.iprental.com/technical/

Speaking of a "commercial botnet"", there was something similar
earlier - but that was a "download this bulk mailer" type operation,
guys called Atriks, who got tracked so extensively by spamhaus that
they seem to have kind of disappeared now.
