    What about using different DNS servers, no add-on necessary. They can be much quicker than the DNS servers your ISP provides.Also, I haven't read up on it, but exactly which DNS resolvers have to comply with the blockades if it were to go into effect, just the ISPs?

    Exactly. Using your ISP's server always seemed to slow down (for example) Youtube. Once I switched DNS server all HQ 720p/1080p videos seemed to stream much faster and smoother.
