They gov was under no impression 4chan would comply, it's just a legal procedure to justify blocking it. It's just a stepping stone.
Go, 4chan, go!

A lawyer representing the online message board 4chan says it won't pay a proposed fine by the UK's media regulator as it enforces the Online Safety Act.
According to Preston Byrne, managing partner of law firm Byrne & Storm, Ofcom has provisionally decided to impose a Ā£20,000 fine "with daily penalties thereafter" for as long as the site fails to comply with its request.
"Ofcom's notices create no legal obligations in the United States," he told the BBC, adding he believed the regulator's investigation was part of an "illegal campaign of harassment" against US tech firms.
Ofcom has declined to comment while its investigation continues.
"4chan has broken no laws in the United States - my client will not pay any penalty," Mr Byrne said.
Discussion
The US could retaliate. The current VP may even be President someday. It's like the British are retarded.
Highly unlikely, the US will be rolling our similar laws.
Then Rupert might get in and abolish Ofcom so its ends up being the same in reverse š
