I don’t think this stacks with compression—if you compress data then it is no longer low perplexity. Data which is compressed as well as you can should look random to you (rather than predictable).
I think filtering like this is strictly worse than compression for reasons I discuss in my response here.
I think it does stack if the perplexity filter is applied before the compression step, which relies on an underlying assumption that it’s easier to secure the internet connection choke point rather than the entire data center.

(But I appreciate the idea!)

I will try to continue the discussion here for simplicity.
