Then we are witnessing one threatened and angry government using everything they got just to stop an independent, decentralized and peer to peer internet tokens system which is giving more potential benefit to humanity just like the invention of the telephone. If they were to use their powers that way then they should start using it to stop child porn or something morally wrong.

governments care about money. they pass on the duties of child porn investigations to local law enforcement.
after all you never see a senator or a MP raiding perves houses.

the government are restricted from directly getting a ISP to ban individuals from using the internet. hense why i said it would have to be done via interpol.
also interpol would need 'good cause' to get a court order to do such things.

with things like perves. stopping their internet is just an alarm bell for the perves to destroy evidence. and thats why they prefer to do 'morning raids' to surprise the perverts and avoid evidence being destroyed. rather than shut down their internet.

though cutting off the internet is both physically and technically possible. the procedures involved in doing so are not straight forward. a government would need to create a law to allow law enforcement to apply to courts to accept and create a court order without question.
much like a bitlicence can be used to stop a unregistered business in new york by applying for a takedown order.
so at the moment i cannot see it happening in reality any time soon to stop individuals.. but that can change much like the change that affects businesses in newyork

but just because there is no bitcoin ban law for individuals in 200 countries right now does not mean we should be apathetic and not secure bitcoin more to prepare/prevent the chance of future changes to the law. we should not leave bitcoin weak to internet banning of just 6000 landlines and then sit on our hands and hope to lobby government to not open the weakness to an attack.
we should not rely on government to solve bitcoin security/utility weaknesses. we should secure bitcoin to not rely on governments.

bitcoin should be at a self sustaining state that no law or individual can hamper it. and not at a mediocre state of hope and faith that bad things cant happen.

apathy and hope which causes lazyness is a security risk.
much like blind faith in devs without personally checking what features and code actually does become a risk.
its how trojans end up on peoples computers because they trust too much that something wont go wrong.
