During the coming weeks, the 15,000th piracy-linked resource will likely find itself blocked by Brazilian ISPs in response to yet another court order. Indications that Brazil is already testing piracy blocking measures at the internet's core routers is controversial, but if blocking is accurate and only targets pirate sites, criticism may be limited. With a new 250+ domain blocking wave implemented this week, let's take a closer look at how things play out.

I didn't bother clicking through, so grain of salt — wouldn't torrent indexers and search sites also be included in this many site blocks? Streaming sites seems to be the lowest hanging fruit.
