But my main point was in the second paragraph, that "enough of them would" will never happen anyway when the only ones doing the blocking are small websites.
What, exactly, do you want ISPs to do to police their users from earning $10 of cryptocurrency a month, or even worse, from playing free mobile games? Neither one breaks the law btw. Neither one is even detectable. (Not even by the target website! They're just guessing too)
There are also enough websites that nobody is quitting the internet just because they can't get Netflix. They might subscribe to a different steaming service, or take up torrenting. They'll still keep the internet because it has enough other uses, like Facebook. Switching to a different ISP won't help because it will be every ISP because, as I already said, there's nothing the ISP can do about it. Which, on the other hand, means Netflix would ban every ISP and have zero customers left. Probably not a good business decision.
You seem to think I said users will think the block is initiated by the ISP and not the website. I said no such thing so I'm not sure where you got this idea.
>What, exactly, do you want ISPs to do
Respond to abuse reports.
>Neither one is even detectable. (Not even by the target website! They're just guessing too)
TFA has IP addresses.
>Which, on the other hand, means Netflix would ban every ISP and have zero customers left.
It's almost like I already said, twice even, that the plan won't work because the big web properties won't be in on it.
