not easy, but have you tried filing a RTI application regarding this?
For folks looking to bypass these rudimentary DPI blocks, you don't really need a VPN.

How about standing up to the people who implemented the ban and their supporters. I don't understand why we are working around oppression.

Technical workarounds and social activism aren't mutually exclusive; given how long the latter can take to achieve results, it's often useful to have the former in the meantime.

How, exactly, do you propose doing that? Do you mean hiring lawyers to try and get the court's decision reversed? Or lobbying to get legislation passed to prevent courts from being able to do things like this in the future? And if the court's decision doesn't get reversed and/or the legislation doesn't pass, what then?
Like all the inflated hype in the news with the federation 'goobledegook' and 'technobabble' with Mastodon and alternatives with techies spinning up instances, perhaps it is about time that techies use Git properly and consider self-hosting your repositories just like how many techies do with self-hosting Mastodon instances?
I don't think there is an excuse to continue using GitHub or a centralized provider that can easily be censored by governments or GitHub themselves censoring other repositories via its ToS either way; when developers of GNOME, Wireguard, Redox, etc are already able to self-host their own code on their websites.
If they can self-host their own code and federated networks, you (techies) can also do it too.
