On ISP level? Only with DNS blocking. Which is pointless since you can simply change the DNS server to some non-ISP one. That's probably why they want to force this stupidity onto browsers. Which is even more stupid and pointless.

If you are technical enough to change your DNS server, you are technical enough to circumvent that

ISP level blocking of traffic?
