>Q: How secure is Telegram? >Very secure. [...] It's just an advertisement like any other. I'm sure the people responsible for the content of the FAQ know their target audience, so they know the wording will work for those whose attention they care about. It is good that we, technical people, understand how completely worthless those words are. It begs for the "citation needed" label. The question for me is this: do ordinary people (non-programmers in this case) really believe in most of the things ads tell them?
