Not happening. While it usually shouldn't be too hard to automate setting up BGP sessions and filtering based on IRR, many (VPS) providers still rely on manual setup and manual prefix filters. It simply doesn't make sense to put the effort in configuring a router when the VM can be taken down at any given moment.
Why is commiting for several months/ a year too much of a burden to you, given most providers aren't too expensive either?
this.
No.
Somewhat off-topic question: what is keeping them from automating it?
Most providers will not do this.
I am guessing abuse could happen if it's automatic plus it's not normally something you want customers joining and leaving. Most companies want customers to stay for months or years.
