As I said, "for now".
The autocrats will continue to try to control/censor the internet and with bureaucrats and telecoms looking to expand their respective empires (through regulation and fees respectively) the issue isn't going away.

They'll try again soon and they'll come back with more allies from the west next time, likely european telecoms and B&M retailers.
