I understand the intent in helping ISPs to limit
collateral damage, and it
certainly would be handy to have the problem resolved for the UK editors
effected...
But in the midst of the news cycle, and with a bit of a PR backlash in
progress, I'm not sure you want to get into "Wikipedia administrators,
developers, work with ISPs to block access to images." It can wait a day or
two, I think, to see if the IWF or the involved ISPs take action on their
own.
Indeed - give it a couple of days and the public pressure might be
enough to force a U-turn. The media seems to be largely on our side
for a change, which is nice. Perhaps they are finally coming to see up
as one of their own and are seeing this as the authorities censoring
the media?
