"Telegram breached", "Hackers break into Telegram", "Iranian Hackers Just Cracked Telegram". I didn't think any of these nonsense titles would reach the first page of Hacker News.
- angry_octet 10y agoHow about: "Iranian citizens pay the price for Telegram's weak security". "Telegram's exaggerated security claims gave Iranian users false sense of security, now Iranian secret police have read their messages." isn't quite concise enough.
- angry_octet 10y agoAlternatively: "News of Telegram hack contrary to user's strongly held beliefs, #offended by suggestion of problems with Telegram."
- slizard 10y agoOne might argue that it's clickbait, but the original title does not claim anything that's particularly nonsensical. All that it claimed was that a data-breach affecting Telegram users (considerable number of) has been identified.
