What about the potential PR backlash? The Pro-SOPA response could be that internet providers are taking matters in their own hands, disrupting their own customers service for their political gain. They'd then argue to the masses (not just the customers) that SOPA puts the government in control to prevent internet companies from working against the interest of their customers, or some such.

I think you might be onto something, but this specific suggestion leaves the anti-SOPA lobby and DNS providers open to a serious PR attack.

Yeah, theres definitely some details to work out. I was kind of throwing it out there as a seed of an idea and hoping people would either thrash it or expand upon it until it made sense.

I was also thinking about the trust schism that could occur. Many commercial entities would lose faith in those dns providers, they would over time need to build in business resumption plans that included working around a dns block. But that would be good right? It would commoditize the ability to work around SOPA, right?
