🔔BREAKING: Telegram CEO charged & Not Allowed To Leave France!
Pavel Durov, the CEO and founder of Telegram, was charged by French authorities on Aug. 28 with multiple criminal offenses linked to his role at the messaging platform. Following his court appearance, Durov was placed under judicial supervision and barred from leaving France. He was released after posting bail of 5 million euros ($5.5 million). A video circulated widely by Russian state-owned news outlet RIA Novosti captured the moment Durov walked free from a Paris courthouse. He had been detained at an airport near Paris on Aug. 24, with French police extending his custody to Aug. 28, when charges were formally brought against him.
The charges against Durov are serious and include complicity in illegal activities, money laundering, criminal association, and providing cryptology services without prior declaration. Prosecutors allege that Durov was complicit in facilitating illicit activities on Telegram, including the spread of child pornography. Additionally, there are reports of separate child abuse allegations against him in Switzerland.
Free speech under fire?
The arrest and subsequent charges have sparked an outcry among Durov's supporters, who argue that the move represents an attack on freedom of expression. With over 900 million monthly active users on Telegram as of 2024, Durov's case raises significant questions about holding messaging app CEOs accountable for the actions of their users. Could this set a legal precedent affecting other social media giants like Mark Zuckerberg or Elon Musk? French President Emmanuel Macron has denied that Durov’s arrest was politically motivated, but many questions remain unanswered. The crypto and tech communities are watching closely as the situation develops, concerned about the broader implications for privacy and free speech in digital spaces.

🚨 BREAKING: South Korea Joining TELEGRAM Investigation!
South Korea has joined a growing list of countries investigating Telegram for illicit content sharing. The Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency is conducting a preliminary investigation into Telegram, focusing on allegations of "abetting deepfake s*x crimes," as reported by Yonhap News Agency on Sept. 3. This investigation comes in the wake of similar moves by France, and South Korea's National Office of Investigation head, Woo Jong-soo, confirmed that the inquiry was initiated after closely observing France's approach.
South Korean authorities are facing significant hurdles in this investigation. Woo Jong-soo noted, "Telegram does not readily provide investigation data, such as account information, to us or other state investigative bodies, including those in the United States." To navigate these challenges, South Korean police are planning to collaborate with French investigators and other international agencies to find effective methods to probe Telegram’s operations.
Telegram’s cooperation with South Korea shows signs of improving, as the messaging app recently complied with requests from the Korea Communications Standards Commission (KCSC) to remove certain deepfake pornographic content. Following the request, Telegram reported the removal of 25 pieces of illicit material and expressed a willingness to establish better communication channels with South Korean authorities to combat illegal content.
The recent developments reflect a broader global crackdown on Telegram, particularly focusing on the platform's content moderation policies and potential misuse for illegal activities. With major markets like India and countries in the European Union scrutinizing Telegram’s operations, the messaging app is facing increased pressure.
Do you remember when Macron said Durov's arrest wasn't political?
Looks like you picked an "honest" President France :)
