Hey. I got problem. I can’t send message via WhatsApp. In the past week, I found something wrong was going on with WhatsApp, but still could use it to send message. When I was about to contact my friend last night, I couldn’t do anything with it. How do I fix that to use WhatsApp in China on my Samsung S8.
WhatsApp is one of the most popular instant messaging app. It is a fast, simple, safe and free way to contact your family and friends from different countries. You can send instant text message, voice message, picture and video to your friends any time. Besides, you can give a video call just like you are talking face to face so that you can express and understand each other effectively. The WhatsApp voice and video call are made via the phone’s network connection. That does not consume the operator’s scheduled call minutes. Therefore, you don’t have to worry about expensive phone calls. Last but not least, end-to-end encryption was added to application versions of WhatsApp. When the information and the call are end-to-end encrypted, only you and the other side of the communication can read or listen to the content sent. No one else (including WhatsApp) can intercept or monitor the sent content. This is why it is so popular all over the world. However, it is not working good in China. Read the rest of this post »

Those who are looking forward to work and live in China cannot be able to access any of the Google’s services such as Gmail, Gchat, search, etc. One of the simplest ways to get around the Great Firewall of China is making the servers within China. This means that the encryption of your internet traffic must takes places as fast as it leaves your computer. Before knowing how to use Chrome in China, you should know why it is banned in that country. In order to keep the country free from the cyber crime, the Chinese Government has created a strong filtering system, the ‘Great Firewall’ that censors the internet excessively. Due to this censorship, people can’t search anything on the website. Any contents that can incite a revolution against the Chinese Government or can harm the sovereignty of the country will be blocked and people, attached to such activities, will be condemned according to the State Law. Under such strict circumstances, there is no question of using Chrome officially. But, people of China or people who are traveling the country access it in a different way.
Your choices are basically using private proxies or a VPN network. We think the best way is choose a VPN. But you should get your own before you get there. Using VPN or other connections available through your business there may or may not be allowed and even if it is, it is probably being monitored. China doesn’t always just block things. And sometimes they just block words, phrases, or some search results. So your best choice is to do a new search right before you leave for a VPN that currently works or make sure the one you are using still works to avoid unnecessary trouble.
