Do you know how DNS works? If not, you shouldn't be posting.

What if they decided to simply block certain sites? What if they decided to append bannders to all your sites? What if? what if?

In laymen terms, if a 404 error code is returned, they are redirecting THAT traffic.

To answer your question, NOTHING "prevents" them from doing it... however, they know better.
