Under the ruling, copyright holders will have to pay $50 to internet companies for every domain blocked.  <-- I wonder if this is a per month charge… or is this chargeable teach time a DNS Server is deployed  / re configured.

Once the sites are blocked, people who continue to visit the blocked sites will see a warning page informing them the site cannot be accessed.

The "landing page" as it is referred to, will be hosted by either the ISP or the rights holder.  <-- What a nice attack target that will be for kids on Holidays who can not download…

So where is the official piece of paper….  And how will this stop users from using 8.8.8.8 for DNS.

Again another pointless exercise.

Kindest Regards
