Increasingly here are a number of easier and easier to use work arounds being propagated to deal with virtually all forms of DNS blocking. At the moment I and a colleague at psiphon.ca are writing short article on censorship and the use of VPN apps (open source) and other tools that circumvent blocking.

When a country like Turkey initiates some blocking the dowloads of the VPN cell phone apps in that country soar into the 10's and 100's of thousands. It is of course a cat and mouse game where the next work arounds are greeted by newer approaches to blocking, but at some point the "cat" will get tired...or nasty, but hopefully open internet democratic forces will prevail first.
