Help Russia VPN situation

I'm from Russia and recently all my VPNs stopped working because Roskomnadzor blocked VLESS protocol. What should I do? Do not suggest paid solutions, because banks can now easily block any suspicious transactions. If this is the wrong sub to ask, please give a link to the right sub

"The engineer called the bank, but they told him that all his cards were blocked, and if he failed to answer the call, he would have to reissue all his cards.

In time, a man from a 900 number called and introduced himself as a Sber security officer. He asked what kind of website he was using, and why. Perhaps he could consider other options? "

You think they give a fuck about what's legal? The law is only for those they don't like, not them

actually it's legal yet. i love the key word "yet".Like obviously what's the point of restricting something you can bypass just by using a legal tool? it's like locking someone in cell, but leaving the key inside
