If a bunch of Twitter-addicted pedophiles can get an IP delisted, it means the death of the internet. That is not an exaggeration. It would be the equivalent of a government burning someone's house down at the behest of a group of activists. Once that happens, property becomes worthless because it can be destroyed, legally, with no recourse whatsoever.
On the plus side, that would be the perfect opportunity for a decentralized system to replace what we have right now, which is a controlled almost entirely by an NGO called ICANN, with the rest of the power in the hands of ISPs.
