    The above quote is incomplete. It should begin:

    A service provider shall not be liable for monetary relief, or, except as provided in subsection ( j), for injunctive or other equitable relief,...

    Section (j) allows for a blocking order.

    ( j) INJUNCTIONS.--The following rules shall apply in the case of any application for an injunction under section 502 against a service provider that is not subject to monetary remedies under this section:

    (1) SCOPE OF RELIEF.--(A) With respect to conduct other than that which qualifies for the limitation on remedies set forth in subsection (a), the court may grant injunctive relief with respect to a service provider only in one or more of the following forms:

    (i) An order restraining the service provider from providing access to infringing material or activity residing at a particular online site on the provider's system or network.

    (ii) An order restraining the service provider from providing access to a subscriber or account holder of the service provider's system or network who is engaging in infringing activity and is identified in the order, by terminating the accounts of the subscriber or account holder that are specified in the order.

    (iii) Such other injunctive relief as the court may consider necessary to prevent or restrain infringement of copyrighted material specified in the order of the court at a particular online location, if such relief is the least burdensome to the service provider among the forms of relief comparably effective for that purpose.
