The author claims that everyone refers to Telegram as an encrypted messenger, but he only provides a single example to support that. I quickly checked Google News and couldn't find any media on the first page that did the same. It feels like a manipulation.
UPDATE: anyone who downvote, I invite to check for themselves.
Just a few known media:
1. https://www.aljazeera.com/amp/news/2024/8/25/telegram-messaging-app-ceo-pavel-durov-arrested-in-france https://www.aljazeera.com/amp/news/2024/8/25/telegram-messag...
2. https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2024/08/25/durov-telegram-detention-france/ https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2024/08/25/durov-t...
3. https://www.businessinsider.com/telegram-ceo-pavel-durov-arrested-french-airport-2024-8 https://www.businessinsider.com/telegram-ceo-pavel-durov-arr...
4. https://www.theguardian.com/media/article/2024/aug/24/telegram-app-founder-pavel-durov-arrested-at-french-airport https://www.theguardian.com/media/article/2024/aug/24/telegr...
However, indeed, I‘ve seen a few media that call it encrypted. This include France24, POLITICO, and The Times.
- lxgr 2y agoSubjectively and qualitatively, roughly half of all news articles on Telegram I read contain the word "encrypted" or at least "secure" somewhere.
- Cynddl 2y agoJust today, every French newspaper and hundreds around the world. Two examples: https://www.thetimes.com/world/europe/article/pavel-durov-telegram-founder-arrested-in-france-6vk7lzj3j https://www.thetimes.com/world/europe/article/pavel-durov-te... “Chief executive of the encrypted messaging app reportedly detained at an airport near Paris over alleged failure to stop criminal activity on the platform” https://www.tf1info.fr/high-tech/telegram-qui-est-pavel-durov-le-patron-franco-russe-fondateur-de-la-messagerie-cryptee-de-russie-arrete-samedi-en-france-2316094.html https://www.tf1info.fr/high-tech/telegram-qui-est-pavel-duro... (one of the largest French newspaper) “Qui est Pavel Durov, le fondateur de la messagerie cryptée Telegram arrêté samedi en France ?”
- cheptsov 2y agoIt’s called handpicking
