- u678u 6y agoAgreed this was my surprise about the headline. I assumed it'd be blocked.
- kombucha111 6y agoIt works as is usually on Chinese ISPs though I noticed occasional interruptions. Using a VPN got rid of those disruptions.
- upofadown 6y agoIt isn't really suitable for political dissent. I think they would be more unhappy with things like Telegram that can have huge group chats.
- powerapple 6y agoPeople use Twitter, YouTube, Facebook, Telegram with VPN in China. Twitter are mostly for porn, telegram for shady business and porn. I would assume you will probably need to use VPN for Signal.
