A VPN just connects you to another network. If that network is being blocked then it does you no good. Proxies are similar and wouldn't do the trick.
A secondary internet would be the only way to truly get around it, and I've seen basic information already about private companies launching their own satellites to basically start a completely separate internet network that would not be part of the same internet as we know it today.
Here's a quick video that gives you a better idea of what all this is:
