I doubt it. Today there is a huge trend towards censorship in the world. And ECH is exactly what a censor would not want. It is already blocked in Russia after Cloudflare enabled it by default and I would expect it to be blocked in the west “for anti-piracy reasons” very soon.
Intensions do not metter in this case. It can be used for that and that’s enough.
If you block any connections that use ECH (by blocking cloudflare-ech for example) users will have no choice but to fallback to unencrypted CH.

ECH is intended for privacy, not for circumventing censorship.
If the next TLS version enforces ECH, plaintext SNI will die out at some point on its own.
