In case anyone wondered how to potentially get around this...
ssh -N -D 8008 your-server-iplocalhost:8008(in Chromium/Firefox you can search for this in Settings)Unfortunately it would be trivial to block an SSH tunnel like this. I recall reading news 10 years ago (maybe even earlier) some foreign journalist tried this at a Beijing hotel room and got shut down in minutes. That was when people are still using PPTP and L2TP protocols to get around censorship, Wireguard and shadowsocks wouldn't be born for another couple years.
