How does it take more than 24 hours to take these servers down when they obviously are violating copyright. It should only take a few phone calls to get them taken down.

Who do you call? The Internet police? Anna's Archive is hosted in countries that don't give a shit about US copyright laws. Pirate bay is back up, and they've been at it for decades.

The traffic is getting here via another country who has signed a copyright treaty with the US. Just follow the packets.

If you block the packets, people will just use a VPN.

The best you can hope for is something like the Great Firewall, which only works on normies.

Sure, ultimately technical/knowledgeable people will be able to get around it. But preventing normies from accessing Anna's Archive is what they care about, because most people are normies.

In this scenario your VPNs would still need to find a ISP that would let them route packets out of that country. This means that instead of a legit VPN company you have to deal with cyber criminals to get such a VPN.

Thankfully the horrendous concepts of western intellectual property haven't been forced upon the entirety of the the human race. One of the silver linings of the current administration speedrunning the destruction of American hegemony is that the waning of our power will likely have positive effects in this regard.
