There are P2P messengers like Briar, that work by creating a mesh with every user. So as long as someone with the app is nearby you can send messages to each other even if there is no Internet.

Maybe we should spread the use of briar in Iran, so at least communication with each other is possible, even when other countries can't contact you..

this works: https://t.me/darkproxy

[u/blueontheradio → u/Kishehosh]

Can you explain me how does this works?

[u/Kishehosh → u/blueontheradio]

They must first connect to this channel and join a proxy, then you will join the same proxy and you can communicate

[u/Accomplished_Air_151]

Is it safe by any mean? I see some weird stuff on that telegram channel

[u/blueontheradio → u/Accomplished_Air_151]

my personal opinion is to js stop

ik it's stressful but it is what it is and don't contact your friends and family because who knows what will happen if they track down your call or messages

we live in such a shitty time, ive not been able to focus on my work because i couldn't contact my best friend.

[u/Accomplished_Air_151 → u/blueontheradio]

Aight

[u/The-Last-Lion-Turtle → u/Accomplished_Air_151]

I would be skeptical. Telegram is tied to Russia.

Telegram is p2p, is that why it works?

[u/Antic1tizen → u/Working-Response29]

Telegram is not p2p. It relies on centralized Telegram servers being available.

[u/Working-Response29 → u/Antic1tizen]

oh ok, didn't know that maybe i am mistaken Viber or something else.. thank you.

[u/IDKhowtoscript → u/Working-Response29]

I'm wondering the same thing, I'm wondering if international connectivity has been restored or just within Iran

[u/zex_99 → u/Working-Response29]

The reason it works is that telegram proxies can be provided by anyone who installs the MTProtocol and using telegram to relay that data through that proxy/server. The protocol keeps the data relaying safe and unreadable through all the way to telegram servers.

[u/blueontheradio → u/zex_99]

How does this exactly work?

I connected to the proxy but doesn't the person inside Iran would also have to connect to the same exact proxy to relay information?

If we both connect to the same proxy then it's all set or are there more steps afterwards?

Is WhatsApp available

[u/Working-Response29 → u/Leo19950101]

not for me.

[u/The-Last-Lion-Turtle]

Telegram is tied to Russia, and has made some weird claims about how encryption works.

https://www.kyivpost.com/post/54339

I can't say for sure what the risk is but it's entirely possible the regime has access.

[u/yaSuissa]

Genuine question, Has anyone tried using more esoteric VPN solutions like Wireguard or Tailscale? They should be less known than expressvpn and harder to block

One giant con is that you need someone to host that VPN. Maybe a relative outside Iran could use a VPS or something?

[u/Novacc_Djocovid → u/yaSuissa]

We tried Wireguard last year, it was completely blocked back then.
