My point was that such a shutdown wouldn't happen overnight (unless maybe you pissed off the executive branch of the government enough).
You have obviously never seen provisional liquidators or policemen with warrants in action. There are lots of ways an organisation like Wikimedia Foundation could be shut down a lot faster than overnight. Hopefully none of them will happen :)
Tip for imagination: Policeman with warrant walks in, says "This place is shutting down in the next five minutes, and those servers over there are coming with me".

The police are part of the executive branch of the government.
