What I learn in Usenet and on early forums, to avoid discuss country regulations, so I will not promise to support this branch of discussion.
But well, as you ask, for about prohibitive regulations, we in Ukraine made (and making) two things.
First, we are practically motherland of anarchy, and was few multiple years periods, when country live without government and without regulations.
You could read about deregulation in books of
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daron_Acemoglu
and
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ludwig_von_Mises
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Murray_Rothbard
also I myself like Ostrom, Elinor (1990). Governing the Commons: The Evolution of Institutions for Collective Action.
Second, when government become powerful, we read prohibitive as it is - we just avoid made business in prohibitive niches. Because of this appear paradox, government and armed forces said that country need rockets, they even allocated large budgets to buy rockets from private companies, but nobody make rockets as they are prohibited.
In some cases, possible to make virtual business or semi-abroad - it is possible to create business in US or in EU (or other countries with adequate regulations) and hire people remote.
As conclusion, I mean, the best way to deal with prohibitive regulations is just flee abroad, to country with more adequate regulations, and you could from abroad support deregulation struggle if you wish. But if it is hard to flee, you could try to open business abroad.
