Let it go. 
Let go of things you can't control, the only way to sanity.

 

I use Expressvpn and it only connected 1 minute today. Canceled my account weeks ago. Now I just study more Chinese so I can do everything in Chinese on Chinese servers the way most locals do.

 

One caveat to this is although I can't access Western servers or content, I can access every sports match for free (if needed) within China. No VPN's needed for that, just some Chinese language knowledge.I still pay for a basic subscription and sports content is at high video quality.
