[Community-Discuss] Re :Re: Internet shutdown in Africa

[Mohd. E.Hafez]

hi community,

we (in Sudan) have a great experience during the last 5 to 6 months ago, 
people were using  (psiphon, touch vpn) for Android. although it 
violating users privacy, BUT it was enough to make one of the biggest 
change in the country.

all the best for Africa.
