Due to the internet censorship of the Iranian territory by the Islamic State, WhatsApp has developed a feature able to enable its use even if the user has blocked internet access or interrupted. The resource is possible due to the new possibility of accessing the application through proxy servers, which can be configured by volunteers and organizations.
The company's CEO, Will CarthCat, even made a statement about it.
“While many of us celebrate by texting our loved ones in WA, there are millions of people in Iran and elsewhere who remain without the right to communicate freely and privately. So today we are making it easy for anyone to connect to WA using a proxy.”
He further adds that now, after using the proxy, whenever the internet is blocked or interrupted while using the app, people can easily regain access.

Protests began in September over the death of Mahsa Amini, who was harshly detained for an alleged violation of the country's dress code.
Islamic law has a very strict dress code and moral police, who spare no effort to apply severe penalties to those women who eventually break it or violate the Sharia in any way. measure.
You can help with protests by setting up a proxy server with port 80, 443 or 5222 available, as well as a domain name that references the server's IP. To access the detailed information of the process, just access this Github.
