Just realized my $50 VPN was useless when I tried to read a blocked news site from Thailand

I paid $50 for a VPN last month to read a blocked environmental report, but the Thai government blocked the VPN too within an hour. Has anyone else run into this cat and mouse game where the blocking just gets smarter?

Yeah I had the same issue with a different country, what finally worked was using Shadowsocks through a private server I set up myself. It's a bit of a hassle but it's held up way better than any commercial VPN.

Shadowsocks over a self hosted server seems like overkill unless you're doing whistleblower stuff.
