I have never seen any interest from governments actually blocking blockchain data, or in general censoring bitcoin traffic. Using bitcoin via internet will highly probably stay the cheapest and easiest method in the future, unless really there is need to have millions/billions of nodes. Doesn't look to me like that, in fact I think quite many bitcoin nodes are just hobbyist nodes that don't actually do any payment processing except for few random personal transactions. So it is quite difficult to see the applications for this, unless made "just for fun".
These projects are just cool PR stunts. And they actually seem to work as such pretty well.
