Yea IWF managed to censor an image! People got annoyed when they realized, and demanded it to be taken down. Yes the iternet will route around problems but if there isn't the need it won't.
If the IWF refused or this becomes more common then people will start taking action. Dialup, VPN's, SSH tunneling, Proxies and alternate DNS providers are all in one form or another a soloution to this style of problem, but until the problem becomes bad enought people won't react.
If you want proof that people will react go look up how to access Hulu from out side the US.
