With an estimated two billion monthly active users, WhatsApp is the most popular mobile messenger app worldwide. 

But it seems many of the platform's users are in countries where it has been controversially banned, such as China and North Korea. 

Will Cathcart, head of WhatsApp at Meta, said 'tens of millions' of people in these countries are using technical workarounds to secretly access the chat app. 

One example is virtual Private proxies usa networks (VPNs), which make users look like they're connected to the internet in a different location. 

However, China has recently ramped up its campaign against WhatsApp by removing it from Apple's App store.
