      Recently? Maybe i’m wrong, but i remember a 2 years old news telling that france was pursuing allowing the police to spy on rioter’s phones… I remember it was not long after the “end” of the yellow jacket’s riots, so maybe it’s even older.

      Dysthopic vibes.

      Telegram is not safe from governments. Maybe safe from Western ones.

      It does not have E2EE for most things. Which means TG users are not safe from TG owners, and TG owners are not safe from those who are the force behind them.

      Maybe it’s Israel, maybe it’s Russia, Durov’s female friend was spotted in Baku in a “cyber-security” center operated by Israelis, so maybe Azerbaijan. Maybe I don’t know.

      You don’t have to know which exactly force that is. All you have to know is how TG works.

      … can use Signal. Its usability has improved a lot since I last tried using it. I’ve just moved half of our family chats there, another half is waiting till a bit later, because they are on another continent. It’s as convenient as WhatsApp.

      I assume he was arrested because he is a russian asset.

      Regardless, he was doing business in France and not following its laws. So the official reason still makes more sense than your fantasies.

      Yes, companies should comply with law enforcement when their platform is evidently used for crimes.

          Not if there’s evidence against him.

          Why would they sue the company when he is the criminal?

        It’s because he kept letting terrorists and child molesters get away with their crimes.

        Governments would continually go to him and ask for help to save people’s lives and he told them to fuck off.

        He’s right where he’s supposed to be now.
