It's a nice article, I guess, but the site is down (the one discussed in the article, not the blog post itself) for me.

I'm guessing though they're using some old spam ip/block though, there's a lot more obvious piracy sites then a Manga site. For instance, I can access all the major torrent sites.
That's disappointing. If only I had some choice to ISPs, then I could express my disappointment by voting with my wallet…
