Those countries probably block VPN services, especially the popular ones which buy all the ads.

There are some countries that block VPNs but there’s also many countries that don’t. For example, TPB is blocked in UK by court order but VPNs work just fine.
Certain Russian news websites are DNS blocked in the EU. I haven't heard of anyone having serious issues using a VPN.
