The IPs are Cloudflare, the TLS fingerprint is uTLS Chrome, and the number of connections with xhttp is the same as your normal browsing.

If you are willing to block browsing all ordinary web sites fronted with a CDN, then yes you can block reality/xhttp. You cannot, however, differentially block it via any of the three things you mentioned.

They are willing to break some cloudflare-fronted websites. That's already a reality in Russia.

The government (any government) hates its citizens and the freedoms it had to allow them
