People are out on the streets right now. Hoping for the best.

Good luck. I expect my country will also block VPNs soon. Those behind such decisions should be tossed aside.

@Zariah
Is your country OP’s neighbor by any chance?

Not too close, but it’s still a bad place.

Without that /s, I would have thought you were serious. Thank you for the clarification.

Look into SSH or do some research on V2Ray and see how it works.

Try using the Cloudflare Warp app. It’s not exactly a VPN, but it works like one for me by routing my connection through their French servers.

Is it secure since it’s not technically a VPN?

@Fionn
No, it won’t hide your IP.

Use Cloudflare Warp in DNS-only mode.

This can bypass DNS blocks, but it won’t hide your activities. If your local authorities enforce strict rules, OP might be in trouble.

What about proxies? You can find high-speed proxy servers for downloading.

Can you share some? I’m new to this.

If I’m visiting soon, I found this subreddit that might help. r/PakistaniTech.

Don’t mention piracy there or you’ll get downvoted to oblivion.
Rich people thinking they can be cheap.

@Vivian
Just avoid any Pakistani subreddit altogether (I can confirm because I’m literally from this bad place).

36

Install Opera, enable the VPN, and use it to download any VPN you want.

37

Use high-quality SOCKS5 residential proxies, as most VPN IPs have been abused.

I’m from Pakistan and using Cloudflare Warp works fine without any issues. It changes your IP address to Singapore. If you’re on mobile (Android or iOS), I recommend changing the connection protocol to MASQUE because the WireGuard protocol might not work on mobile data or Wi-Fi.

I wonder if you could connect to Tor using bridges.

Once you do that, you can set up a VPN that works in your country. Look into VPNs that have obfuscation to hide the fact you’re using one.

Also, consider getting a dedicated IP address as an add-on from some VPNs. It wouldn’t be seen as a VPN by the national firewall.

Of course, this depends on how things are set up there.

Good luck and stay safe! :+1:

Consider trying the Tor browser.
