Sorry to break it to you but we're well past the "scary because it might (theoretically in a far away future) work" phase. Today IP blocks are practised by all or at least most nations, and even western "democratic" governments are salivating at China's advances in mass surveillance. Some of the worst offenders are Britain and Germany, but France is not much better. Countries with a "free" internet are becoming few and far between (thanks to the "free speech craze" the US is still amongst them, but on the other hand punishments are draconian if you "misbehave").
