one of the tricks i've used in the past for this is to openvpn back to a
host and port forward from the public vpn box back to the restricted on
port 80 box.

I've even done this tunnel over udp:53, which makes it look like you are
sending lots of dns traffic, which you know charter will never shut
down.

...then again, i will only host in a data-center as to not impact my
home experience.
