I don't entirely disagree, but at the same time, La Liga shouldn't have this much power to shut down large swaths of the internet because of a handful of piracy sites, that probably only have a minimal impact on their income anyway.

Also, CDNs have inherent economies of scale and network effects, so it is natural that there would be just a few at the top.

Only it's not La Liga censoring, it's a court order as far as I can understand from the TF article. Should the judicial system of a country have the power to shut down large swaths of the Internet after presumably due process and in accordance with the law? IMO yes.

Now, the question really turns out to be "Is a law stating that large swaths of the Internet must be censored to stop a handful of piracy sites just?"

No. It isn't.
