What may happen is that the websites get blocked by the ISP at request.
Lemmy does manage to circumvent this by the fact every instance has its own domain and cached content.
Most likely, 4chan.org will be blocked and a British Firewall will be added.
Even /po/ - Papercraft & Origami?!
I'm not so sure. I think Parliament's goal is to assert extraterritorial jurisdiction while paying none of the political cost of banning websites. Sure, 4chan isn't popular, but if they win their case (which they will) then a lot of US-based sites will just ignore OFCOM and they won't be able to avoid more unpopular bans if they go the ISP block route.
