With the situation in Ukraine being what it is, wouldn't they be cracking down on Telegram usage in their country if this were true? They don't seem to be doing so, and the usage seems to be quite high.
- lukan 2y agoWhy should they crack down on Telegram? They tolerate it, as long as the high profile channels are broadcasting pro russian points of views. (everyone above a certain viewer size MUST register with the state, that goes for any site)
- ikt 2y agoHe's saying why would Ukraine tolerate Telegram if it was so Pro-Russian? Since he's saying it directly leads to their conversations/data being handed directly to the Russians
- lukan 2y agoI did not say Telegram is pro russian. Pavel Durov certainly isn't that much - but he still made a deal with them in order to be allowed to continue operating there. https://www.ft.com/content/b1e76905-29f2-4ac0-99e0-7af07cef280d https://www.ft.com/content/b1e76905-29f2-4ac0-99e0-7af07cef2...

- twelve40 2y agohaha this is so ancient not a single person or channel i read even remembers this. Canceled in 2017, i guess the cancellation part has not been as widely reported (probably not as exciting for sky news to report that) https://old.rkn.gov.ru/news/rsoc/news48342.htm https://old.rkn.gov.ru/news/rsoc/news48342.htm
