Not too fussed about the whole porn thing, but I'm more worried about the implications this might eventually have on other web services. There are loads of sites which might be blocked as a result of this - forums/message boards are often labelled as 'nsfw' to protect themselves from liability of what users post, and restrictions on copyrighted media (on any site from YouTube to Pirate Bay) could well follow in another SOPA-style controversy.
Of course little of this should matter to any other country, but being British we'd most likely be too embarrassed to call up our ISP and ask them to unblock 'nsfw content'.
