Is this somehow tied with the seizing of all the .ml domains? Possibly tied in with restricting internet/social media access if some inconvenient protests were to break out?

Seems entirely unrelated.

The issue with .ml domains was only its free offerings, not its paid ones. And you can thank Meta for that. They sued the registrar managing several ccTLDs, including .ml, .ga, .gq, .cf, and .tk. Meta even goes so far to fabricate a conspiracy theory about the registrar being part of a cybercriminal ring.
