Ignoring reports of illegal material is one thing; ignoring invitations to join US-based programs or cooperating with them which Telegram is not required to do

Ignoring reports of illegal material is one thing; ignoring invitations to join US-based programs or cooperating with them which Telegram is not required to do by law is different thing. The article for some reasons doesn't clearly states what it means; the author uses vague ambigious wording instead like politicians do. The article mentions a 2023 report of SIO [1] on minors trying to earn money by selling their own photos online; the report mentions Telegram, but notes that Instagram and Twitter are worse: > Instagram is currently the most important platform for these networks, with features that help connect buyers and sellers > Instagram’s recommendation algorithms are a key reason for the platform’s effectiveness in advertising SG-CSAM. > Twitter had an apparent regression allowing CSAM to be posted to public profiles, despite hashes of these images being available to platforms and researchers Yet, for some strange reason Musk and Zuckerberg are not under investigation. Note, that the report also doesn't give any recommendations to govts to help minors to earn money they need the legal way to solve the root issue.
