They don't need to take down every alternative site, they just have to make it inconvenient enough that a plurality of people stick to their censorship apparatuses. They have been effective at stripping away critical infrastructure, banking and payment processing, web hosts and more. We need more than a website. We need a secure web browser - which can happen now, and long-term we need our own infrastructure.
Average intelligence means any overly technical solution isn't going to be effective. For example, you can technically side-load an app onto iPhone by self-signing it, but .0001% of the population willing and able to do so will never defeat app store censorship. Most people would not be willing or able to switch to Ubuntu, let alone TAILS. It's good that they exist, but it's not going to save civilization.
Getting people to Switch from Chrome to a Chrome-like free speech browser like Dissenter is by far the best effort versus impact ratio we have now against big-tech censorship. There's very little compromise to switching browsers with additional features and the same core code. Even a secure OS can't solve tech censorship, but Dissenter browser enabling people to comment on web-pages could. In my opinion, we need to be putting just as much effort into migrating from Chrome and Firefox to Dissenter as we do making memes.
That's fine for us tech folks using desktop apps and browsers but normies use their mobile devices and none of them are going to take the time to install and learn an alternate OS either on their desktop or mobile device.
It's been working really well for them so far. They now enjoy absolute power with nobody will stop them.
They're just pushing everyone to sites they can't take down. They're too full of themselves to believe there are sites they can't take down though.

Tor, TAILS or just linux, ipfs. Those are a few technologies, and there are probably others, and some will likely be built on top of these later.

They really are like evil cartoon villains
