How to use Weixin/WeChat in India where it is restricted by the government?
Hi there, I have lately noticed that Chinese platforms like Douyin and others are being heavily censored by the CCP, so accessing content related to anything controversial is a rare sight. I am excited to try WeChat since I have heard a lot about the extent of information which is usually available there regarding military movements and human rights (Tibet and Xinjiang). Also, I want to monitor fresh demolitions initiated by the Chinese authorities at Larung Gar Buddhist Institute recently.
Using VPN doesn't help in installing WeChat on my phone. So, thinking of doing it on my laptop. Not sure whether it would work or not. Additionally, I have heard the app requires multi-factor authentication and sometimes a fresh account needs to be verified using an existing user account. Any idea on how to get past the hassle?
