Sanctions are about impinging others freedom because they’re behaving badly.

“Why can’t I play with the kid who is in timeout? Is it because you hate my freedom?”

Except your analogy here should be more "there's a kid on timeout so nobody gets to play, just in case"

I would think that enforcing economic sanctions would be a far more effective use of time and effort.

		Shutting down a business = economic sanctions. Blocking domain of a web publication is part of shutting it down. What do you prefer instead, to make domain registrars enforce sanctions instead of blocking on DNS level? That would quickly make so that no one with Russian passport is able to register a domain no matter how much we are against russia or putin
