    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.
