Interesting that Kim Dotcom blames the MAGA boogeyman "deep state communists" for his persecution and celebrated Trump's win, while Trump's supreme court is currently poised to force ISPs to crack down on bittorrent traffic. I don't expect intelligence form Dotcom, but does he really think a conservative oligarchy is going to be friendlier to the users of decentralized anti-corporate protocols?
The only reasons countries like Russia and china don't police piracy is because not doing so hurts US corporate interests, not because they love free speech and want to enable circumvention of government-enforced censorship.
