Telegram CEO Addresses Major Legal Challenges and Future Plans đš
In a heartfelt message, Telegram's CEO has shed light on a recent 4-day police interrogation in Paris, where he faced scrutiny over the platform's misuse. The CEO highlighted surprising aspects of the case:
1. **Official Channels Ignored**: Telegram has an EU representative for legal requests, publicly accessible for law enforcement.
2. **Established Communication**: The French authorities had ample ways to contact him directly, including through the French consulate in Dubai.
3. **Misguided Legal Approach**: Charging a CEO with third-party misuse is an outdated and problematic approach, jeopardizing innovation and responsible platform management.
Telegram remains committed to balancing privacy and security while defending user rights globally. Despite these challenges, the CEO emphasizes that Telegram is not an "anarchic paradise" but a platform actively working to curb harmful content, with significant improvements underway.
Stay tuned for updates on how Telegram plans to address these issues and strengthen its platform! đȘđČ
