People's attention spans are ridiculously short. If the person is actively looking for the content, sure, that obviously won't work. However, if it's a more casual browser, then going to a site that takes a long time to load between different pages is definitely a way to get them to not visit it any more.

China and Russia do this with a lot of western sites, from what I've heard.
