Most of us are aware how geoblocks are one more reason people nudge towards piracy. Well, I didn’t knew that companies imposed geoblocks even on free content.

You sound like you aren’t from Australia! Vast majority of geoblocking is for free content actually (selectively free, that is). Things like Netflix US having different titles to Canada isn’t really geoblocking, unless it’s for a Netflix Original (not aware of any such cases)
Yeah, so much US content gets geoblocked here. It’s super weird, just a random clip from a show on youtube? woops, looks like that content isn’t available in your country.
Well at least we get ours back when we geoblock them from watching the AFL/NRL grand final. Right? Oh, no one watches it? Oh.
