Sanctions bypass refers to the techniques and methods individuals, organizations, or nation-states use to circumvent government-imposed restrictions, often related to digital services, software, or online platforms. These sanctions are typically put in place to limit access to technology, financial systems, or information for specific countries or entities due to political, economic, or security reasons. Bypassing sanctions can involve the use of VPNs, proxy servers, cryptocurrency transactions, or spoofing locations to mask the true origin of internet traffic. Such activities are often considered illegal or unethical, as they undermine the intent of international regulations and can facilitate cybercrime, money laundering, or the spread of prohibited technology.
