That's the equivalent of leaving the door open and hanging a sign "Internet over there" pointing at a wall.
Programs don't need to respect those registry keys. If you're worried about internet access, set up a firewall.
Also, if you're worried about malware, the damage is probably done before anything connects to the internet.
Yes for the pointing to a wall.
You can go with your firewall I don't mind. I don't get why you think this had anything to do with security. This is just to get any software to go offline by default.
