BEIJING (Reuters) – Tencent’s WeChat has temporarily suspended registration of new users as it undergoes a technical upgrade, China’s dominant instant messaging platform said on Tuesday.
“The platform system is undergoing technical upgrade, and (new user registration) is expected to resume in early August,” the company said in response to a question from Reuters after the suspension was flagged on social media.
