Thinking is not shitting
Is there a difference between telegram and other social media messenger hybrids?
Do they allow anti Russian content the same way they allow pro Russian content?
Is that a problem?
- necovek 2y agoTelegram is widely used in Ukraine too, and that includes a lot of anti-Russia material.
- sofixa 2y agoTelegram allows everything and anything, including unsavoury/illegal content (supposedly you can report it and it gets taken down, but potentially the whole crux of the issue Durov was arrested over was that it's not enough/fast enough/law enforcement can't report). There are channels from Russian and Ukrainian officials making official announcements (today our city of X got hit by missiles, please go to ABC if you need help), there are Russian officials using it for official communications (including military and intelligence). There are paramilitaries and other such groups using it for internal and external communications too.
- herbst 2y ago> Telegram allows everything and anything, including unsavoury/illegal content Which is simply wrong. Telegram is heavily banning users, channels and groups (if reported I assume) the difference is that they don't apply American morals but something a bit more open than that. To give you a concrete example, it strictly follows basically the same morality terms for porn as onlyfans or pornhub (except the copy right that is)
