The way website.com will start dealing with that, is to block end users to spend legally minimum amount of time on ToS.

That won't work. The real answer is to make it 100 words or less.
Then they will lose users, though.
Would’ve been my thought too. Yet look at what happened to EU GDPR cookie rollouts.
Those only take a few seconds. We're talking about at minimum a solid five minute blockade—and I would posit it really needs to be a couple of hours or more, given the length of these agreements.

If a TOS is important enough to a company that they're willing to impose a two hour waiting period on customers, I'd say that's their prerogative. It would likely be effective in getting many users to read the agreements.
