Yeah, I agree with you and Martin: the Internet routes around failures, and this

I was wondering if some operators wanted to share how they are going to try to
resolve the order from the court.
The order from the original court said that including the site in
"Cleanfeed" was sufficient to have actioned it. Cleanfeed, the Judge
knew, was trivial to circumvent, so he made the order in the knowledge
that it wouldn't actually work.
Only the named ISP's have to do something. All other ISP's would be wise
to do nothing until they receive a court order naming them. To just
block the site might make them liable to lawsuits from their customers
alleging illegal interception of their communications.
IANAL (I Am Not A Lawyer), but anyone dabbling in this field should
consult one.
IAABP (I Am A Bottom Poster - is this internet standard not applied on
UKNOF?
