  • XRImagineer Ali Fardinpour (Phd) (@XRImagineer) reported

    @WhatsApp @instagram and other communication apps are not working properly in Iran due to #IranianProtests this means the government doesn't want the world to witness their brutality. We need to open safe routes for thw Iranians to send their videos out. #OpIran

  • NargesNik1 Narges Nik (@NargesNik1) reported

    @WhatsApp stand with the rights of people? so why we cant see your support? we cant make connection with each other... If you are not to blame for the disorder, please try to fix it Because I think Iran cannot block all Iranian numbers abroad.

  • FiXxXiF FiXxXiF (@FiXxXiF) reported

    @WhatsApp @netblocks All the users signed up with an Iranian number have been experiencing the same issue, no matter they're IN or OUT of Iran! This is confirmed by users in different continents. Are you going to elaborate on this? How are they able to disrupt users access even in the free world?

    @mosseri @andymstone Can you explain to me how is it that IG and @WhatsApp accounts that have an Iranian number (98 international code) are not working in the US and Europe? Most certainly Iran’s govt doesn’t control access to internet in the US or Europe

  • Farshid_AND Farshid (@Farshid_AND) reported

    @WhatsApp Shut ******** off mothrt *******. If your not blocking, who is deleting protests videos. Why my whats app is not working in Netherlands #Mahsa_Amini @Twitter #OpIran

  • Somebod52831211 Somebody (@Somebod52831211) reported

    @WhatsApp @KianSharifi Iranian phone numbers (+98) have problem to connect to WhatsApp! Even if they are outside of iran. It's seems @Meta or some of it's cdn are helping Islamic Republic to shutdown Iranian people voices! Also many videos of protests are removed in Instagram.

  • MSharifpourMD Milad Sharifpour, MD (@MSharifpourMD) reported

    @andymstone @mamlekate Not exactly! @WhatsApp accounts with Iranian phone numbers (+98 international code) are not working in the US or Europe either. Are you saying that IRI is blocking their access to internet in Europe and the US also?

  • NahidGhani Nahid Ghani (@NahidGhani) reported

    .@facebook tell your boss to stop submission to the IR. Why has he shut down @WhatsApp in Iran?

  • ay_ghalbam امین تیموری (@ay_ghalbam) reported

    Eventually, they shut down the whole internet to kill more. Please, if you see this tweet, be Iranians' voice. In addition, **** you @Meta @WhatsApp @instagram #مهسا_امینی #OpIran #internetdown

  • itsMostafaaa Mostafa (@itsMostafaaa) reported

    @ImanOracle @WhatsApp You should be embarrassed. Iranian people are alone. They always been. When it is an EU country like Ukraine issue, all of you become supporters from social medias to @elonmusk to facilitate Internet access. But when it comes to an Iran-issue you become blind and deaf.

  • phonix05417555 phonix (@phonix05417555) reported

    @Splendidess @WhatsApp @netblocks They are shutting down the internet in Iran. Please share it with others. Do not let them to kill people in silence. #MahsaAmini #مهسا_امینی #OpIran

  • iMeow_allday Meow All Day (@iMeow_allday) reported

    @WhatsApp Informal version of this tweet: It's not us, the issue is with the Iranian government doing bullsh*t.
