Back in 2017 a few of the spam filters from Core that apply to legacy TXs were not adapted for SegWit.
Fixing this inconsistency in Core would go a long way in mitigating the problem, but the current maintainers don't seem willing to make this fix (they recently closed a Pull Request that did just that).
Running Bitcoin Core with the ordisrespector filter, running Bitcoin Knots (@lukedashjr's version of Core with extra features and adequate filters), or pointing your hashrate to Ocean if you are a miner are the things that are in the hands of individual Bitcoiners.
