It seems to me that this is another example of how the Internet can
route around problems.  Those determined to avoid the SOPA net will just
move their sites, servers, domains and networks to countries outside of
ARIN.

This will be especially true should the US government, on behalf of the
big media corps, have a go at websites dedicated to encryption and P2P
software development. Overnight these very savvy people will move their
sites from .net to .ru or .ch.  It's a battle that cannot be won.
