How can you block it, if the browser itself is doing the communication, over https no-less?

DoH was made to stop censorship, which includes blocking; if you could just block it, then whats the point of DoH?

DoH uses regular DNS to get the IP address of the DoH server. So they could just block queries for the most popular DoH servers.
