That's only because the ecosystem cooperated, because it's all run by govt-adjacent entities. You and your DNS provider are free to ignore those seizures if you want. You could have a whole network of people who ignores those kinds of things. Maybe someone could call it the Dark Web, and it could be 20+ years old.
