IMO, the safest route for an individual with tech competency is to setup a small instance server in the cloud outside your country and use ssh port forwarding and a proxy to get at information you want.

For an example of a proxy service https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-set-...

That will give you a hard to snoop proxy service that should completely circumvent a government blockaid (they likely aren't going to be watching or blocking ssh traffic).

Advanced enough censors (who have DPI) do block or slow down ssh, e.g.: https://serverfault.com/questions/1122015/ssh-blockedfor-for...

That's a pretty strict censorship that basically locks your digital infrastructure into your country.

		Well, mimicking China's GFW is seemingly the objective of some governments. But they are also able to allow some light (text-based) ssh usage and still prevent proxying.

		I guess that's where the slow down part comes in. I'd imagine you can slow SSH to a snails pace and it'll still work for basic CLI use

		Something that is often a benefit from the perspective of these regimes, yes.

That hasn't worked for china since before 2020, you're years out of date.
