Protocols that mimic regular https traffic in a way that survives DPI. There are many variants like vless+reality+vision, naiveproxy, etc. It's still cat-and-mouse game since government's DPI systems are constantly improving.

Interesting. What would you recommend though, and how would you recommend searching for these services?

Just on the off chance that north america could become like the aforementioned countries.

You can self host xray or sing-box server (which implement many of the protocols) on a cheap vps. A lot of documentation is not great and is either in Chinese or Russian but it's doable. There are also paid services offering vless with various degrees of reliability and sketchiness.

Of course the real challenge when living in an authoritarian country is how to pay for it. I.e.you need to buy a vps abroad. I guess it will be easier in USA then in countries under sanctions or with internal restrictions where people generally can't use Visa or PayPal.

Thanks, I'll look all of this up later and see how I can handle it.

I'm actually wondering the same thing. I had the thought of buying a ridiculous amount of VPN time quite some time ago but ultimately decided against it for the reasons listed.
