In September, WhatsApp CEO announced this WhatsApp Proxy feature on Twitter. The company was taking this step to protect the rights of its users to access this private messaging even after government censorship. This feature is available for all the users globally but it has been primarily launched for the people of Iran. After the death of Mahsa Amini at the hands of the Iran’s ‘Morality Police’, the anti- hijab protest was going on since September last year in Iran and the Islamic Republic banned WhatsApp and Instagram as part of its measures to quell the anti-hijab protests. So, to keep running the WhatsApp service for Iranian users, despite the efforts by Iranian government to Block the app, WhatsApp launch this feature.
