@markw2000 If you had read the text of the law, you would understand that they do not need to be convicted first. If I can take out a competitor by killing authentication services with an allegation of infringement, it may be worth the fine I have to pay, if I am ever found guilty.
Read the law, it does not require a conviction to take it offline. All of this potential harm, and I can bypass it all with one line of script, to get a hosts fine from a trusted source that still has all of the domains there. The trusted source will, of course, include themselves in that list, and I can just schedule the machine to grab an update at regular intervals. The DNS system completely bypassed in 3 minutes of work.
