Just ambiguous wording. If you take the time to read it without being a jackass and intentionally misreading it, it's clear that he means they should go ahead and block any IPs/domains that Newszbin2 moves to. The pivot point of this being around the word "might" - you are reading it as if it read "potentially," which is clearly (from context) incorrect - again assuming you are not intentionally reading it incorrectly.
No, only the imaginary bits that go with it. The imaginary bits being the intent to facilitate copyright violation. We like to call those imaginary because in the context of legality and morality they DO in fact exist (regardless of your interpretation or perceived importance of them) however, when you sit down and look at it, the bits clearly do not exist in practicality. It's an interesting point of conflict between technical folk like us, and other people.
The interesting thing? What you just described, we ALREADY USE.
For example, the F16 fighter jet. It's an unstable system, the only thing that keeps it pointing forward is automated feedback controls - if this is broken, it tumbles and "flies" ass-forward into the ground. This same idea makes the plane so maneuverable - the controls preventing it from turning in a specified direction are loosened, and if necessary the airframe is nudged by other controls into that direction and the rest just "happens"
It's not a terrible stretch to take that same idea and apply it here.
Your bath water happens to be an example of fluid dynamics. Fluid dynamics plays by rules that something made of rigid bodies and electronics does not.
I forget what the term is, but it's the reason that sensory deprivation works...
In the absence of a real stimulus ("signal" if you will) our brain makes shit up. In the lack of navigational stimuli, well, there you go. False "feelings" of that stimulus.
When I was young (5-10 years) I had a LOT of problems in one of my inner ears and mastoiditis.
End result? That entire side of my body is smaller and weaker by a measurable amount. That jaw is 1.5cm shorter if you look at it "from below". Glasses tend not to fit right because my facial bone structure on that side is significantly asymmetrical. One leg is a bit shorter than normal too, which coupled with all the other bits causes my hip to stand "naturally" out of balance, causing my back, shoulders, and neck all sorts of fun. Interestingly, despite (or perhaps because) of all of this, there are only a few things where I am "right handed" and those can be explained-away by muscle memory coupled with convention - eg the only reason I "can't" write left-handed is because my left hand was never drilled in making those symbols, where my right was by custom.
All this because something must have disrupted something at the level that determines side dominance.
congress cant get their shit together to open up the storage facility.
I think that accurately portrays our political situation. You'd be amazed at how much shit would get done if those yarks stopped fighting over who got to sit in the clown car.
Sure, if you include "doing anything else" as grinding. You don't even have to be in game. I can be skilling up while I'm at work, or eating dinner, etc.
I find myself much more likely to take a look at international news when it's "physically" available to me. I don't seem to do so when I'm sitting at a computer, even though I could do so more easily, for free, and in a more timely manner.
The amount of software available in "main" is staggering. That's 52 CDs / 8 DVDs just to cover the binaries.

Make sure you enable "contrib" and "non-free" - the expert installer asks you, the other I think assumes "no" and doesn't enable them.
Flash et all are available through said repositories. They are there - they are just kept out of "main"
The lag... well, that has it's pros and cons. I personally feel that (since squeeze) the pros far outweigh the cons. Now I have something modern-enough that's pretty damn rock-steady stable. This is certainly a matter of preference though!
If they want people to use it, perhaps they shouldn't have chosen such a stupid name as "Duck Duck Go." The same sentiment applies to WireDoo. And Bing. And Yahoo, HotBot, Excite, and just about every other search engine I remember. Hmm. Odd isn't it? Even Google sounds silly.

D'oh! All those early-years issues happend on ONE SIDE, and that side of the body is the "reduced" side.
I'll add a semirelated anecdote...

Hmm. Imagine that, slashdot is a US-centric website.
Perhaps you should go start some other news aggregator that's more internationally focused.
Or you could just stop bitching. You know, the easy way.
Didn't you hear that "wooshing" sound just now? (tip: awesome is being used sarcastically)

Not sure why.
I will say, having the International Herald on mine is freakin' handy.
extra note:
You've seen these paths right?
