Has there been any publicly known examples of what was done by these
companies if they were threatened by the governments on the lines of "Our
ISPs will ban your entire domain, if you don't cooperate" ? This article
seems to point at only 'requests' + 'conversations', unless I missed it.
Things like "if you operate in <xyz country> you must comply with <xyz>
law" have a Twitter response of "we don't have an office so technically we
don't operate in there".

Best,
Manish
