Maybe we aren't discussing the same thing. I am thinking about an
organisation doing the walling at national level. Now, between the source
of the information and me, I'm guessing, there will be several routers,
many of them having optic fiber in between. My assumption is also, that the
router doing the prioritizing is working entirely at this optic fiber
level. Would my argument hold in this case?

We seem to discuss this every 10 years or so. This was a big issue, back
when Cable TV providers were major ISPs. Creating a walled garden didn't
work back then, and I am guessing that it won't this time around either.
The advantage with technological arguments is that you don't have to work
too hard proving yourself right. Time will do that for you :)
