I'm trying to get my images back out of imgur, which is blocked in the UK due to the online act malarky.

Am I right in saying that if I use something like a VPN which appears from a non-UK country, then I should be able to access the images to download again ?

If so, any recommendations for something sort term ? A lot of the normal big-companies offerings tie you into paying for a 2 year deal, but you can get your money back within 30 days.

Is there anything where I can just get a short term one off payment ? I'm not interested a long term thing, nor the hassle of buying, then cancelling.
 
Just use provider that has a free tier that allows server location change. Such as Proton VPN.

Yeah Proton VPN is perfect for this. Sign up with free account, install the software and click connect. It will put you to Netherlands/USA or if you get super unlucky, UK. Just wait 5 minutes and click reconnect till you get the lottery of somewhere not the UK. I got Proton for £1.61 a month in Cyber Monday so happy with that.
