IP block it. Boom there goes eSNI and DNS.

Sure, it's crude, but again: it doesn't have to perfect, it just needs to create havoc with Google services to push away a regular user, who has no idea what DNS even is.

A better approach though is to fine Google, with a % of revenue increasing until compliance. They'll very quickly be incentivised to comply or shutdown.

The whole argument was about blocking search only, considering the damages suddenly completely blocking google would do. Yes, you can block google data centers completely, but dude, would that cause chaos.

A better approach though is to fine Google,

I said that multiple times already.
