With a lot of talk from governments around the world trying to either ban or restrict VPNs, I’m curious to know what are our options if they follow through? I know we can use the Tor network, but is there other options? I assume we could self-host our VPN since I don’t think it would be affected by a possible ban. Is there a less tech-savvy option I’m not aware of? I’m just trying to understand all of my options just in case a ban does happen.

    Basically, to acess restricted content and protect my privacy. It seems like VPNs are the best tool and nothing else has come along to fill that gap. Ad you said, Tor, I2P, and self-hosting your VPN would be more securing your network. I don’t believe VPNs bans are going to work because everyone uses one or one reason or another, but just in case they somehow go through, I wanted to be prepared. Also, just genuinely curious as well.
