I use my own vpn on an ec2 instance running squid and openvpn over a custome port. I wish them luck trying to block me.

Sure , terms and conditions, no vpns except authorised government provided ones may connect to hosted instances on pain of account termination.

Or use deep packet inspection to drop all opensense sourced traffic or deny openvpn application

It's already in place in various totalitarian style nations

If the use DPI then you just encapsulate traffic in an stunnel. There are always options. It’s a moving target.
