I think differently than most people so I’m going to break this down very simply. I posted some links to court cases in the US the other day. Because of peer-to-peer network issues in a period twenty years ago, the Supreme Court held that developers can be liable for peer-to-peer software. Now, the bit everybody seems to be missing is how do you stop everyone.
 
I have made the point innumerable times that bitcoin is a small world network and hence both exchanges and miners require large-scale highly connected networks.

If you start to think about what that means, it requires DNS. It requires IP addressing. Not Tor level but commercial grade Internet.
 
All of these can be cut off the Internet. Think about what an exchange can do if it violates court orders and is no longer connected to the Internet.

I know that people have these false ideas about satellites and the use of the TOR network, but the reality is only one sort of node matters on the bitcoin network for processing, and that is the miner.

Any miner thing to use either the Blockstream crippled satellite system or the TOR network will find that they cannot adequately process transactions and very quickly find that they are not competitive. The highly connected small-world network of bitcoin was designed for a purpose. It was designed so that people cannot create the system that they seem to want. It was designed to deliver the system I wanted.

Ask Calvin about domains.
 
Trust me; domain seizure is simple. When I was doing work for various copyright agencies, including RIAA and other related organisations in Australia, courts ended up seizing domains and servers very frequently.
