Doesn't WeChat in China require users to sign up with their national ID?
- em-bee 5y agoi was not taking about sign up. a phone number is required to register, so i share the number with wechat. but wechat does not force me to share my number with other contacts. the national id is not required as far as i know, because then foreigners would not be able to sign up
- 3v1n0 5y agoI confirm I signed up for WeeChat 4-5 years ago when I was in China for a work trip and I was able to use it without any ID.
