so...:

"The principles of the solutions are simple: each participating
network at its sole discretion can step to =E2=80=98trusted internet only=
=E2=80=99 if
an emergency situation requires to temporary disconnect from the
global internet."

you're asking your ISP or set of ISPs to 'stop forwarding me packets
from X and Y and Z'

can't you just no-export your routes to your provider today? (or other
similar options).
