The company said that connecting via proxy maintains the high level of privacy and security that WhatsApp provides.

"Your personal messages will still be protected by end-to-end encryption - ensuring they stay between you and the person you're communicating with and are not visible to anyone in between, not the proxy servers, WhatsApp, or Meta," it said in a blog post.

This option is now available in the settings menu for everyone running the latest version of WhatsApp.
