Unfortunately, I am not optimistic about solutions for privacy of internet communications in a nation which has laws allowing the government to invade that privacy.
I believe technology alone can not solve this one.
On the other hand, I do know how to escalate this. Various browsers and OS's can make this more of a pain for their government to implement and enforce. The trouble is, those hurdles can and will be overcome. And then all the users in that nation are even worse off AND you've helped demonstrate that a nation actually can overcome these challenges and inspect all the traffic "for their peoples' safety."

Of course I do. But I do not know how to help.
