    Is it possible to bypass this block? Say, embedding VPN packets within a different protocol?

      I don’t know why some moron downvoted you, but the answer is maybe. For reference, I have always bypassed SSH firewall blocking by sneaking SSH packets within https.

      The only way this won’t be possible is if the government enforces installing a certificate to use the internet, so that they can do a man-in-the-middle-attack. I heard this is already being done in Afghanistan.

      For simple web browsing or streaming over https you can use a socks proxy.

      For full VPN function you could try something like IPSec or L2TP, as they’re not listed in the protocols Russia is targeting.
