that's not how VPNs work
Regulated doesn't mean they control all VPNs, it means they usually have laws requiring any use of VPN to be licensed, and usually is allowed for businesses rather than individuals. They also block via their firewall many providers. Of course, you could always use one illegally as long as traffic isn't blocked. Just don't get caught.
Sure it is. But it means that they can tell the VPNs to block the same stuff that everyone else is told to block.
"the VPNs" is not a thing when literally anyone's connection can be a VPN for someone else and nobody else would know
