The Danish government have forced some of their ISPs to block the connections to the famous Swedish bittorrent site the Pirate Bay, and the only thing that led to was even more Danish traffic…in fact the blocking increased the traffic with
12 percent. The main reason for this was of course all the media attention plus the fact that a lot of Danish users switched to OpenDNS (where nothing is blocked).

This is the right response to government oppression. Whether due to the media or intentioned, this will teach the Danish government not to fight against The Internet.
