Telegram is not a fully safe or anonymous communications app, but its easy-to-use privacy features have attracted whistleblowers and dissidents from around the world – along with criminals, traffickers, and terrorists. If a platform is responsible for moderating content posted by its users, did Telegram not do enough... and did Facebook go too far? ••「 LINKS & SOURCES: https://drdrew.com/8292024 」•• After the arrest of Telegram CEO Pavel Durov in France, many freedom fighters who use the app are now especially concerned about Telegram's lack of open-source security or default end-to-end encryption, and how the company might respond when its billionaire leader is threatened by powerful governments who demand access to its keys. Attorney Viva Frei asks: could Telegram be used as a cudgel in the war against other encrypted apps? And why do officials keep mentioning that Thomas Crooks, the attempted Trump assassin, was using unnamed encrypted apps from Belgium, Germany, New Zealand?
