That's the CURRENT law, what makes you think it won't change?
For your information, Comcast, the largest telecommunications and internet provider in the U.S has already been caught illegally throttling traffic to torrents. There have been several bills that congress nearly passed in the last couple years that will make what Comcast did legal. That means all the largest telecommunication giants and ISPs can BLOCK users from accessing whatever site they want with a snap of a finger.
Guess what? They will have no problem blocking traffic to illegal tube sites, file sharing sites and torrents. Less bandwidth consumed, less resources needed and large payouts from the entertainment industry. Blue media corp, Comcast and many others have been pushing for it big time.
Just because things are the way they are now, doesn't mean they will stay that way. There are much larger powers with way more pull than the "netizens".
BTW..Netizens isn't even a word and you want to play grammar police.
