Newzbin and their like brought a lot of unwanted attention and a fixed target for Usenet haters, if they do go down it will be beneficial for the future of Usenet and not the opposite.
As for providers going down, well if the worst happens at least two of the biggest have server farms in Europe now and I'm sure they'll move to Sweden if that's what it takes.
You can't kill Usenet, you can only chop off one of the thousands of re-growing limbs.
