Not sure how tor solves things. Hostile regimes build great firewalls, China famously has one, Russia now has too. They will just block access to anything outside country. And then anything inside is under their full control bcs every local internet provider has their hardware installed. You could operate at small scale I guess, but will be found and shut down when they finally bother. P2p like SSB could probably work until they learn to detect and block those packets.
