Its already happening in Spain. Everyday there is a football match from the spanish league (thats from Friday to Monday, both included) LaLiga orders the ISPs to shutdown everything that uses Cloudflare under the pretext that the shady websites that offers pirated football use their services, killing easily 1/3 of the national traffic for like 4h.

Why the ISPs comply? The biggest ISP of the country (Movistar) also happens to be the main one that showcase legal football.

How is this legal? The judge that authorised that and the president of LaLiga have been friends since forever.

Eventually this will go the European court where will rule this was illegal and anti-constitutional all along and give a Spain a fine (the the citizen will have to pay ofc), and revoke this bullshit, but untill then we are screwed. Nothing will happens to LaLiga, or the corrupt judge, or Movistar, fucking privileged and corrupted bastards.
