Odaily Planet Daily News: The arrest of Telegram founder Pavel Durov in France has caused concern among the Russian people. Since the Ukrainian conflict in February 2022, Telegram has become one of the few uncensored sources of information in Russia. According to Mediascope research, Telegram has become the fourth most popular online service in Russia. Some industry insiders analyzed that Telegram has now become the "main source of information" for those seeking independent views. However, Pavel Durov was prosecuted for failing to curb extremism and illegal content on the platform. Although he has been released on bail, he is not allowed to leave France. In addition, the European Commission is investigating whether Telegram needs to comply with stricter regulations. (Fortune)
