The author is pretty naive. There is a reason why Google was left out of the list, in the 2010s people argue "Google is too important and China never dare to block it" then google's whole IP range is blocked.

Amazon Cloudfront, Akmai, Fastly are also (partially) blocked and barely working.

IMHO cleve tricks like "domain fronting" is just freebooting

What do you mean by "freebooting"?

We added domain fronting support to the OpenConnect TLS-VPN client _in 2022_ because it is still working and useful for many people working in censored countries and environments. https://gitlab.com/openconnect/openconnect/-/merge_requests/...
