They can literally compromise new machines faster than you can identify existing compromised machines. It doesn't do anything to impose anything on the machine owner -- as soon as you identify the machine you can blacklist it, and as soon as you blacklist it they stop using that one.
The problem is in the time it takes you to identify a compromised machine, they can compromise many more additional machines.
