Possibly, but there's also a physical address listed on the WHOIS record, and if that is the actual address of the contact then it'd probably be tough to move forward on those grounds. But this is kind of getting into the entire CISPA issue: who, if anyone, has the right to take a site offline? How are they empowered (elected/appointed, federal/international, etc.)? What types of sites, if any, should be taken down? On what grounds and under which due process? Using this scenario as an example would be scary; Sophos, a for-profit corporation, is saying that some other company has some threat of unspecified impact. I'm not saying that Sophos would do anything malicious, but I do think there could arise conflicts of interest when you consider their products.
