I think a better solution is to have ISP s work together to warn and cut off access to botnet infected computers. They have the technical ability because they have strikes for copyright. Perhaps it could be a soft ban like an hour long ban or something.

But if two billion people decide to stay at home and continuously press F5, you should get freedom of speeched. I think that's the equivalent of a picket line. Not talking about automated tools other than "refresh page every second".
