French authorities have accused the Telegram co-founder of enabling illicit activities on the messaging app.
This is so laughable, because it’s blatant selective enforcement.
If he’s guilty, then Facebook/Meta/Google, etc, etc, are guilty too - even more guilty by orders of magnitude.
They just have the government connections to protect them.
Telegram is so much worse. Last time I checked Meta and Google at least tried to keep illegal activity of the platform.
Telegram is home child porn, human trafficking and drug dealers. I would understand if they couldn’t take stuff down due to cryptography but in this case they choose to ignore it as it passed though and was stored totally unencrypted.
