Can that really stop people from downloading the ISOs though?  I imagine someone might be able to get around those blocks by using a VPN, for instance. Someone might also be able to buy a PC or laptop from another country with Linux or BSD on it and import it (though I know taxes and import fees for such things in Brazil can be quite expensive).

Blocking ISO downloads is something I'd expect from a country like China, but I wouldn't have expected to hear Brazil doing this..
