Russian government plans to block VPN

Hello. As of November 1, 2017, Russia is banning the use of VPNs. Will there be any workaround to use Riseup Red VPN if they just block 198.252.153.226 IP address?

I know of no solution to using the VPN if they block the IP. However, you certainly can use Tor.

Well there are some elegant workarounds other VPNs would implement, I wonder if Riseup is going to do something similar to e.g. this https://zenmate.com.ru/promotion/zapret-vpn/

Unfortunately, it's unclear what they're doing differently. If you're familiar with the technical details, please elaborate.
