Either Connect to VPN > Download the Add-on.

Or, on the GitHub or Gitlab page, provide a copy of extension and the instruction to install it locally.

The problem with this is that Russia tries to block all popular VPNs as well.

I know, there are many VPNs and you can host your own VPNs, but most regular users won't bother.
