> Tor is great but the bandwidth/latency kinda sucks for casual browsing activity

It is reasonably decent these days. Generally there are periods where Tor network is slow.

> A VPN is a more realistic workaround to this kind of geofencing

Generally I tend to use a combination of Tor / VPN depending on what I am doing. Some gossip sites have onion urls and I will use Tor if visiting those. Other sites that are geo-fenced (sites like Odysee) are easier to get to via VPN.

> I almost said "solution" instead of workaround, but of course the only actual solution is to fix the legislation.

That isn't going to get fixed anytime soon. In fact I expect it to get worse over time.
