"It’s a significant number of sites to be sure and it’s all enabled by
the change in the copyright law. It’s worth keeping in mind that we’re
less than a year into the change in law, and the entertainment industry
has already blocked something like 200 sites. Even if we were to
stipulate the pirate-y nature of these sites, which we shouldn’t, the
speed at which this much wholesale blocking is being done is tremendous."
