They could, but I strongly hope for a few things:
1. The technical side of things would prevent anyone from blocking easily, making it costly to censor.
2. The sites won't bend much, understanding the full consequences of their actions, that with every demand complied there will be another one. It starts with evil terrorists and pedophiles but never ends with those, going after political activists, whistleblowers and just random things someone in power thought they don't like.
3. Eventually, we'll have less fragile societies, that won't have issues with anyone speaking anything. Governments will adapt and instead of censorship develop educational programs that encourage rational thinking, fact verification and other goodness, so any ill propaganda will be pointless.
