For those affected by the blocks, Signal recommends turning on its censorship circumvention feature.

Signal is being blocked in Venezuela and Russia. The app is a popular choice for encrypted messaging and people trying to avoid government censorship, and the blocks appear to be part of a crackdown on internal dissent in both countries.

    It’s just that people like e2e and call anything that is not e2e “not encrypted”.

    Perhaps you can share your knowledge with me. I don’t know how chats that are not e2e are “encrypted”. If telegram or other parties can access it, is it truly encrypted?

      If the website creator and others can access the content hiding behind SSL/HTTPS, is it truly encrypted? It’s similar with telegram, except they also don’t keep the raw data on servers etc.
