https://stream.echo6.co/videos/watch/7bf19f7d-32d1-49cb-9917-26062ddca228 The internet is often controlled and censored in times of civil unrest. Governments can block certain services, like access to websites or apps, or they can even shut off the internet entirely. That’s exactly what’s going on in Iran at the moment. The government has partially shut down the internet as a result of protests, and they have also blocked access to the secure and private messaging app, Signal. There are ways we can help: Set up a proxy signal server that Iranians can connect to, allowing them to communicate privately and securely during a hostile situation. 00:00 Introduction 00:57 What is a Proxy Server? 02:17 Rent a Cloud Server, and set up SSH Keys 05:26 Setting up the Signal Proxy Server 06:23 Pointing Your Domain to Your Cloud Server's IP Address 07:22 Running the Signal Proxy Server 07:50 How to Connect Your Signal App to A Proxy Server Signal's Instructions: https://signal.org/blog/run-a-proxy/ Note: To connect to a signal proxy: On iOS: Privacy -- Advanced -- Proxy, and type in the URL (eg www.freeiran.xyz) On Android: Data & Storage -- scroll to the very bottom -- Use proxy, and type in the URL (eg www.freeiran.xyz) NOTE: There was a mistake in the video -- If you go to connect to a proxy server MANUALLY, the URL you type in does NOT have the format https://signal.tube/#theirdomain.com.
