WhatsApp to enable messaging in internet blackouts

Service for sending and receiving instant messages WhatsApp now allows users to connect using proxy servers in order to remain online if the internet is restricted or disabled due to shutdowns.

The technology giant, which is controlled by Meta, stated that it hoped blackouts like the ones in Iran would “never occur” again.Information Guide Nigeria

They denied human rights and “cut people off from receiving urgent help”.

WhatsApp is urging its global community to volunteer proxies to help people “communicate freely” and said it would offer guidance on how to set one up.JAMB Result

“Connecting via proxy maintains the same high level of privacy and security that WhatsApp provides,” it blogged.

“Your personal messages will still be protected by end-to-end encryption – ensuring they stay between you and the person you’re communicating with and are not visible to anyone in between, not the proxy servers, WhatsApp or Meta.”NYSC Portal
