- morgante 11y agoI think it's a lot further away than you assume. The US has much stronger free speech protections than most countries and really doesn't take kindly to censorship. The MPAA has gone after torrent sites, but that's very different from blocklists. For one thing, it involves actually shutting down the site so isn't really a viable vector for mass censorship.

- Natsu 11y agoShutting down the site actually censors it in all countries, not just one. I'd say that's more dangerous than blocklists.
