From the looks of it, it didn't take long before it was used to take down something other than piracy sites:
"Update: Also, Piraattilahti.fi -address currently hosts just a video file casting criticism against the SOPA legislation in the US. How does this promote copyright infringement?"
Seems we have a pattern for this in Finland. DNS blocking of suspected child porn sites went live some years ago. Then a researcher published critique on how it was handled (most of the blocked sites did not have any illegal material), and his site got blocked as well.
The childporn system in Denmark was used to something similar. The actual list of websites is/was hidden, but got leaked to wikileaks -- a large amount of those banned sites were simply (adult) gay sites that had pissed somebody of.
I am not sure, but I think the end of it was that the leak was blocked too (since it contained addresses of child porn).
Personally I guess they just didn't wanted to have to explain why they blocked a site for a Duck forklift renting company (to be fair, those were some sexy forklifts, they were less than 18 and they didn't have much clothing on).
The ministry of purity has determined that your website offends the invisible powers that be. It has been purified. Thank you for your cooperation. This decision may not be appealed or challenged or examined. You may not ask how this decision has been reached because if you do, you would be exposed to impure thoughts.
It looks like the address used to be a proxy for thepiratebay.org, but was redirected at some point after 5 November 2011, as indicated by http://translate.google.com/translate?hl=en&sl=fi&tl... -- note that the "Pirate Bay. Com" of the title is a mistranslation of the original Finnish "Piraattilahti.fi".
Sure, nothing against the Spotify per se. But it's the copyright holders and their lobbying that is behind these laws. If you want to send a message, stop using their services (or buying products) all together.

Uh oh..
