From what I gather, the regime doesn't really intend to arrest anybody who simply regularly accesses western websites. Some big corps also have their special VPN channels to access foreign websites so that they can do business normally. Hell, even the foreign ministry spokesperson posts regularly on Twitter. What they want is to stop this floodgate of information being opened to the common mass, that's when things could get problematic.

People are arrested for producing things that are deemed potentially destabilizing for the regime/country, but nobody as far as I know ever got arrested for accessing blocked materials.

Of course, if you are also actively producing content it would be much wiser to camouflage your identity much better, if you can. That's when the secrecy becomes a major concern.
