3000 proxies seems like no big deal for the government to ban.

"Any" impact is weird phrasing, though. Only a very small percentage of people will be savvy enough to attempt to circumvent these bans.

Except the lists often change every minute, and some types of proxies are just a compromised script/page sitting on commercial, private, and government servers.

There are several one-button vpn/proxy+tor apps for unrooted phones already, and they are dodgy on a good day. =3
