I'm just curious, what if I'd use my pi-hole to block all connections from/to China on my home network. I have a good bit of automation in place, but mostly western solutions, yet still I wouldn't be surprised if they called China. Have any of you tried this kind of experiment? Is it even possible to block? What gone down?

Just put it on a seperate network, with no internet connection. Use a server as a passthrough, so you have control. Stay away from anythibg cloud based. Pretty easy stuff honestly.

I hadn’t thought of your concept. Thank you. I’ll go research it now
