They’ll probably get a list of hashes from major copyright holders. So the biggest torrents won’t work, but you’ll still be able to pirate small-time artists.
But the individual network packets are usually at most 1500 byes long, and applications encrypt the content. Hashing doesn’t prevent jack squat. It’s more likely to be DNS + IP blocks

They would need to map the trackers most likely
