Make good connections with people you trust internationally. If it really comes down to it, between friends, people who care could work together to set up SOCKS5 tunnels or some such to walk around it pretty cleanly, but you would really have to trust whoever you give credentials to since they would be using your internet connection for whatever. Could also straight up just install the OpenVPN server for this.

Once or twice I have opened a tunnel to friends on one of my servers through a bastion host - any outgoing traffic from the server goes through my own VPN, so it wouldn't matter if they couldn't access a VPN in their country.

For anyone who doesn't care to learn, which in my experience is the vast majority of all people, not much can be done. Even the people I meet who say they do feel that they care deeply mainly just like to be loud about that, but never actually put in the work to learn how to do something as simple as use ssh -D, let alone learn how a proxy actually functions.

I suppose the best those in the know can do is to make it clear that they do know. Should friends actually begin to care, then they will know who to go to for possible solutions.
