Finland censors anti-censorship site

A small correction

"That's because it requires Finnish internet service providers (ISPs) to block entire web servers"

This is not entirely true. The ISPs are not yet required to block access to these sites. However, when the law was passed, it was openly discussed that if the ISPs do not voluntarily block access, they will be forced to. So voluntarism is questionable at best. Major ISPs do block access according to the list, but many smaller ones do not. And, of course, it is ridiculously easy to bypass the block.
