Telegram host thousands (or more, not like I keep count) of blatantly cybercriminal groups and refuses to take them down. Due to nature of my work I have access to a few new telegram channels used to leak people's data every day, and telegram refuses to do anything with it. Same goes for channels where cybercriminals organise their activities.
Telegram is one of the main sources of disinformation in my country. Known fake news channels are never closed. It's also a big market for illegal data.
Telegram hosted a leak channel for the data stolen from my country's government for many months before finally agreeing to take it down. Then a clone of this channel was created, and it exists to this day.
Tell me more about how telegram does... anything at all to moderate its content.
- coolspot 2y agoCan confirm. One can subscribe to channels that for example give away stolen credentials for disney+/netflix/chatgpt every day.
- Sakos 2y agoI've seen a lot of wild shit in Telegram channels. It's weird seeing people defend Telegram, but I guess that's American first amendment fundamentalism/fetishism. Even terrorist speech should be protected, apparently?
- an_guy 2y agoWhat kind of "terrorist speech" are we talking about?
