Within days of their launch, Telegram was discovered to have huge vulnerabilities that resulted from them rolling their own crypto: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=6948742 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=6948742, so I'm not sure they should be throwing stones about other people's bugs.

- ta999999171 7y agoFull disclosure: I've moved on from Telegram, but I'd use them again in a heartbeat if it was them or a FB owned property.
- ryanlol 7y agoYou’re full of shit. There’s nothing theoretical about that vulnerability (almost certainly a deliberately planted backdoor), it allows the Telegram servers to selectively MITM private chats. > there has been no successful implementation of them. What does this even mean? Only Telegram can perform this active attack, obviously you haven’t seen it implemented.
