McColo Corp, an internet service provider that has been confirmed to be the provider of choice to a rogue's gallery of unsavory clients, has been cut off by its backbone providers, cutting the world's total volume of spam by as much as 75%. Sadly, these people will undoubtedly be able to find other service eventually. But enjoy the respite while it lasts.

"enjoy the respite" is actually correct english phrasing. "respite" is equivalent to "reprieve" (a (temporary) relief from harm or discomfort) or "suspension" (an interruption in the intensity or amount of something) in this case.
