Yes, but what if the govt just politely tells them "look, we've a law about piracy and we think you should block websites at the DNS level like our ISPs are doing". Do you think Google / Cloudflare will fight it? They already have mechanisms for that in place for parental controls etc. so... the effort of adding a block list for a country shouldn't be a big deal.
