Simple steps on how to unblock Telegram in Brazil

With the recent news of the Brazil court suspending Telegram, a VPN is a must have in these kind of situations for us to stay secure and be able to access communications safely.

A few simple steps on how to unblock Telegram in Brazil:

  • Go to r/vpn’s comparison table;
  • Choose your VPN provider and sign-up;
  • Connect to any server of the VPN;
  • Clear your browser’s cookies and history;
  • Use Incognito/Private modes of your browser;
  • Go to the Telegram’s Web version;
  • Done!

Please do not use free VPNs, they collect and sell your data, they are not trustworthy at all so don’t risk it. Please stay secure in these trying times!

You can use an MTProto or a Socks5 proxy instead of a VPN. It’s easier than VPN to use and also let’s you have more than one proxy configured in your telegram so you can switch between them.
Telegram → Settings → Data and Privacy → Proxy

Telegram has built in proxies

Remember to pray that Telegram doesn’t turn over your private data to Brazil’s authorities, the way they already have!

If you want private communication, it’s better to use an app that respects your privacy and doesn’t slurp up your data. One such app is Signal.
