Just filter out googles ASN and ip's. And stop peering with them on BGP. Simples

Im not supporting this by the way. I think the internet should be free and open, without governments blocking what I can access.

Spain proposes 100% tax on homes bought by non-EU residents in c/world

Well, they should try to avoid any object in the road to be honest. Imagine a new toy comes out that a child is on. Sorry we killed that child l, we didn't train it on that new toy.

Its just an unacceptable answer to be honest.
