This is pretty bad. As have been pointed out by multiple commenters in this thread a lot of the examples in this article and the underlying paper are simply incorrect. I'm Norwegian and I can say with extremely high confidence that three domains given as an example in the paper [1] (page 10): hrw.org, match.com and 163.com has never been blocked by any major ISP in Norway. However I do know that some piracy and gambling sites are. I tried to download the data for myself [2] to take a closer look, however as I do not study in the US and thus do not have a .edu email address access is blocked.
