if you're smart enough to be in grad school, you're smart enough to have a VPN

yes, but not all countries smile on use of VPNs. i don't know about turkey but in others you can get in some trouble.

that's assuming they can catch you, which they most likely can't.

More like inconvenience than trouble, I would say, as most prominent VPN providers are blocked at IP level.

with nation-state resources, are there not traffic analysis options that could work?

Turkey actually has a GFW equivalent and it is spread across multiple layers.

i am told by expats that you can use VPNs in china to get access to blocked sites; i am also told that the government generally turns a blind eye, especially to foreigners using VPNs. how they deal with chinese users, in terms of social credit score, is something that is opaque. it seems like an inherently "antisocial" activity by the standards of their governance.
this is all assuming that with nation state resources they can identify use of VPNs at the user level.

Also there are a lot of mirrors. Easiest I can always remember is 0wikipedia. Just add a 0 before the hostname, no block.
