Anyone know how WhatsApp is being blocked?

  The judge ordered mobile operators to block it. It's on them to set up the firewall rules / null routes / etc.

  IP blocking at the carrier level.

    I feel a bit silly for asking, but do you have a source? There is loads of misinformation going around in this thread. Are you from Brazil and do you observe this, or did you read it somewhere?

      Please, don't feel silly for asking anything! Yes, I'm brazillian and in Brazil, work with telcos and follow the surveillance/censorship subject very closely. I can point you to some legal documents if you want but they're all in portuguese (and in baroque legalese to boot!).

        Okay, thanks for the response!

    That should be fairly easy to circumvent. Just setup clouds of proxies. As with Tor and China. In AWS etc.
