Absolutely this. They've already lost people to Telegram with the repeated blockings. The third question in the Telegram FAQ is 'How is it different from WhatsApp?' [1]. The feud between WhatsApp and Telegram, with the former blocking the latter's links, is well-documented [2]. Both of these apps are available on Android, Windows Phone, and iOS, and since Windows Phone has a higher-than-usual (relative to North America) share in Brazil, this is relevant.
