is it what happened here?
in my view Durov is the owner renting his apartment and not caring what people do inside it, which is not illegal, someone could go as fare as say that it is morally reprensible, but it's not illegal in any way.
It would be different if Durov knew but did not report it.
Which, again, doesn't seem what happened here and it must be proven in a court anyway, I believe everyone in our western legal systems still has the right to the presumption of innocence.
Telegram not spying on its users is the same thing as Mullvad not spying on its users and not saving the logs. I consider it a feature not a bug, for sure not complicity in any crime whatsoever.
- hiq 2y ago> the owner renting his apartment and not caring what people do inside it, which is not illegal Problem is if you know what these people do inside it and you don't do anything about it.
- peoplefromibiza 2y agoWhich is something that should be proven in court. Problem is if the police arrests the owner of the apartment but not those doing something illegal inside it. Out of metaphor: Durov has been arrested because he's Russian and the west is retaliating as hard as they can. Under the same assumptions Durov has been arrested for, Elon Musk and Jack Dorsey should be in jail too.
