They don't actually care about the block or ban, they just want to put in enough token effort that a judge in the area will feel that it was reasonably done. It's performative for the legal system.

    No, not performative or token.

    Blocking via geoip is a reasonable, best effort method in this case. It's doing a best effort to comply.

    So not merely for performance without true compliance, or tokenism, which courts really frown upon.
