I'm reasonably certain that once enough governments jump on the "we need to control the internets" bandwagon, there will be a region specific convention adopted similar to country codes for phone numbers so that they can, in fact, apply customs to it...
I suspect it won't be in the name of righteousness though, more likely it'll be taxes, copyright, etc, on internet sales that trigger it.
Don’t IP addresses already provide you with region info?
America's IP addresses are governed by ARIN, how long until you see that name in headlines for controversy...
