Ok but would it be effective censorship?
Assume there is transaction that Gov want Foundry not to include in the block. So Foundry excludes it from its mempool but some other miner eventually mines it. Then Foundry starts building on block prior to that and maybe is lucky to find the block and another so it wins but the game is not over. Someone else again finds the block and Foundry does not manage to find the next one. Ok it might have that luck to build on block -2 and find 3 blocks in a row and build chain with more proof of work, or not.
The point is this game is risky for Foundry as it is risking resources and might also fail. Would miners be that happy to allocate their hashrate there? Maybe some would leave. What if 10% leaves because they are not affraid.
If 3 biggest pools are forced to censor transactions then they have mbigger chances to win but still it is game of probabily.
This is a game and it is not lost untill the ball is at play. Have some faith in pleb with Bitaxes.
