Well, this isn't strictly speaking true.  There are legal ipx tunnelers 
(see www.kali.net) that let you play starcraft games (and other ipx games) 
over the internet.  Battle.net isn't a starcraft "server" really (as 
clients host their own), its just a lobby/gamefinding system... just like Kali.

Of course this is way off topic now, so...
