However, different countries have far different rules about the internet in their own countries. It's one thing to have the US and NZ working to seize Kim Dotcom's goods - those are both western, developed countries. I think it would be far more difficult to get every country on the same page. China and its Great Firewall is one example that springs to mind, but many other countries in Asia and the Middle East also have moratoriums on content that the US and other western countries wouldn't bat an eye at. Not to mention the issues that deep web, VPN use, Tor, etc. would cause.
Never mind that governments use hacking and malware to disrupt the inner workings of nations with whom they don't see eye-to-eye. It just seems like a big can of worms.

You'll have to also keep in mind the right to be forgotten thing that's been going on in France.
