I agree that wikipedia going dark in the uk would -as yet- be premature at this juncture.

Wikipedia should just continue to operate as normal in its U.S. jurisdiction. If the UK government want to block it, then so be it on their own head.

Exactly my point.
But that said I want to be clear that I have no issue with the Foundation's current actions or position in the court system. I was responding only very specifically to the suggestion above that they "should" block Wikipedia access immediately in order to force the hand off the British government.
