The more surprising thing is that they seem to genuinely believe they can "block" content. Sorry, the internet doesn't work like that.

Actually the judge says:

       Finally, I agree with counsel for the Studios that the order
       would be justified even if it only prevented access to Newzbin2
       by a minority of users.
Though he probably doesn't realise quite how ineffective this will be!

They can. Or do you mean that the judges think there's no way around the block? If so, do you have a reference for that?
