One scenario for punishment: you get dumped off the grid for a period of time. People are assigned personal IPs and the authorities get extremely tweeky about people trying to get private IP access. If access is wireless you could dump people offline remotely quite easily and that could be quite catastrophic if a lot of technology is based around implants and personal verification.
