It does feel like DNS resolvers are the next battleground. I can’t remember the provider (NextDNS maybe?) but a DNS resolver was threatened by several very large media companies that they would sue if the provider didn’t block resolution to pirate sites. The provider caved IIRC.
CloudFlare might have deep enough pockets to take on Sony/Disney or even EU law but the smaller providers certainly don’t.
