    So when that gets blocked, they can just generate a new key. I don’t see how this really stops anyone that wants to keep going.

      The point is it makes them identifiable. If you block anything not authenticatable, and everything that auths via *.google.com, you are effectively blocking everything from Google.

      If you fear they will evade to other domains, you’ll have to use an allow-list.

        Ok so effectively then this basically shifts the work from blocking IPs to blocking domains. It might slow down some smaller players, but I imagine anyone with a decent amount of money can afford an insane number of domains.
