What works

Each part of the service, checked from Syria.

Core useWorks

A new whiteboard opened and drawing on it worked; the strokes appeared on the board.

Landing pageWorks

The whiteboardfox.com home page loaded normally from Syria with its Start Drawing button.

Sign-upWorks

The reporter says accounts were created with Google and with email without a verification code; the screenshots show the site signed in to two different accounts.

Sign-inWorks

The sign-in page loaded with Google and email options, and the account menu showed a signed-in session.

PaymentFails

Choosing to pay by credit card opened a Stripe checkout page showing "Something went wrong", and choosing PayPal showed a "Sorry, you have been blocked" page, so neither payment form could be reached.
