I'm not sure whether you are being sarcastic. Don't you think they would cooperate just fine if it would make business sense for them?

They don't have to cooperate. As in the title, only the ISP DNS enforce this.

I suppose the gov could ip block 1.1.1.1 and 8.8.8.8 just as easily.

[aorth → jjeaff]

Is "too big to block" a thing yet? Services like Signal were certainly relying on this via their domain fronting technique.

[Shivetya → aorth]

they certainly are not too big to fine.

that would be the end result, put the onus on the DNS providers. who needs to China to disrupt the net when the West is just fine doing it on its own.

[rat9988 → Kuinox]

They can themselves be blocked.
