I wonder if it's a matter of bait and switch, or a come-on to get a 
taste, then entice the stupid into accessing the 'really "good" 
stuff'. I get lots of the typical spam crap advertising this junk and 
delete it without reading. But it wouldn't surprise me that, like the 
'contests' from the 'premium' mobile services, they are ways to get 
people 'hooked'.

If the govt thinks they'll stop the 'really "good" stuff' by blocking 
websites, they're daft, just like their censorship policy. Too much 
money in it.
