I feel like this would just push more nontechies to learn how to be better pirates. It would do very little to stop piracy.
Only way to stop piracy is to make it easier and cheaper to buy the goods legitimately in all corners of the world. Since that won't be happening, and since so much content is an outright gamble if it's even any good, piracy will continue to grow.
When one site gets blocked 10 more pop up. More people just need to learn about VPN use.
