From what I’ve read about this lawsuit is that the UK isn’t blocking the site, they are sending them daily fines for not IDing every user. The 2 sites are arguing back that they aren’t UK companies and don’t even have any business/physical presence in the UK, so as they have nothing to do with anything of the UK then UK laws and legal threats have no meaning to them. Which I agree with here.
I think they are seeking legal lawsuits like this to help prevent any future issues (like having arrest warrants issued for them in the UK, preventing them from ever being there, or the risk of other countries arresting them and shipping them to the UK to face the fines/charges).
