I am experiencing such banning of providers right now. It is a whack-a-mole, seems futile. Not to mention that most people use sketchy free noname VPNs that are just too numerous. Or apparently some people set up basic XRay/VLESS/whatever and sell it via a Telegram bot...
Not mentionning that anyone can set up their own VPN server… Good fucking luck with that 💀
You can ban big hosting providers, but even here they're cautious with measures like that because it would break WAY too much. Not to mention that you could just use a lesser-known one, even if it doesn't operate in the country legally.
I’d like to see them ban Microsoft azure, aws, or whatever Google calls it. Not to mention the numerous smaller providers.
Italians will just pay with crypto to get around payment bans.
I bet there comes the day that I need to share access to my server to allow people from other countries accessing the real free web through me…
Host a Tor node or bridge right now if it is safe for you))
Or vpn hopping, works too.
