              The government’s motion to dismiss this appeal pursuant to

       tence appeal waiver will be enforced if it was made knowingly and
       voluntarily); United States v. Boyd, 975 F.3d 1185, 1192 (11th Cir.
       2020) (sentence appeal waiver will be enforced where “it was
       clearly conveyed to the defendant that he was giving up his right
       to appeal under most circumstances” (quotation marks and brackets
       omitted)); United States v. Grinard-Henry, 399 F.3d 1294, 1296 (11th
       Cir. 2005) (waiver of the right to appeal includes waiver of the right
       to appeal difficult or debatable legal issues or even blatant error).
