1. He's another decent guy who won't help out authoritarian governments – so he gets arrested.

2. Every time I find a group to join like computer programming or interests. The place gets bombarded by bots. How do ppl have any thriving community in that app? I download and then delete it after being disappointed.

3. We have fascists leaders leading the western world, mainstream media are complicit with this strategy. It is like arresting the boss of the post office, for what is sent through the post, ridiculous.

4. The Guardian lol how did you bunch of dyed green pink purple hair loons pop up??

5. No dog whistle in that title, Guardian. What exactly are you the Guardian of?

6. It's amazing how the Cold war has been revived. We're all supposed to fear Russians now but it is obvious to many that the threat is from the governments of the West who hate their own people.

7. Tough nuts lil buddy imma still use it

8. Telegram is the best, guardian sucks big hairy purple haired balls

9. Arrest Zuckerbot 🧃 free PAVEL

10. These apps are only as secure as the owners price of freedom! Zuckerberg obviously on his own admission wasn’t that high?

11. Bro fix your hair

12. The mainstream media is more dangerous than telegram

13. |I did not know Telegram was Russian made. How can the 1 Russian make a better app than the US?

14. What rubbish all media is. What happened to journalism.

15. Guardian stop being racist, racism against Russians is still just plain old racism, disgusting from the guardian

16. you vill censor yourselves!

17. Gaurdian types must be loving this comments section😃

18. Putìn owns everything russian.

19. He wasn't a billionaire before creating Telegram. Get your facts right, you slaves

20. So when are we going to arrest the Toyota CEO for providing the Taliban with their vehicles? The Guardian support this tyrannical regime. I can see that only outliers like Farage provide a glint of hope.

21. Give me a few million quid if he wants

22. His girlfriend conveniently disappeared when he was arrested. Mossad?

23. Should the owner of the post office be arrested for all those exploding letters and white powder that gets posted?

24. Where the fk is the armed forces dealing with these dangerous situations invaders all over the west , only America has an armed population for this government tyrant agenda

25. Is Durov the new Assange? An example for the rest of us not to get too far up ourselves?

26. Free Durov !

27. Free Pavel Durov !!!!! NOW !!!

28. Dur0v must be freed.

29. All they need is access to Telegram codes so they can monitor communications. Each time anyone restricts governments from invading your privacy some sort of extremism involved. Whistleblowers cannot trust any media resources nowadays. Assange and Snowden cases are clear example of that.
    If it is a government – it’s Top Secret.
    If it is your privacy – we will turn you inside out.
    When Russian government wanted Telegram banned – it was invasion of privacy and freedom of speech.
    When it is other way around – it is a nest for criminals and extremism.
    The only problem is that Telegram is not US, Europe, Russia or China based.
    I’m surprised The X was not banned yet…
    Too much to lose if Musk is arrested I guess 🤔

30. Don't see America banning firearms, do you?
    Surely the Gun trade is guilty of killing billions of people.
    But it isn't the Gun.. it is what people do with it. (The people are guilty)

    The truth is obvious. They (world governments) want access to whatever we say
    whenever we say it. Russia removed VK from Pavel's ownership by force and now
    the French are trying to do the same with Telegram.

    You can have freedom of speech, but it comes with ZERO privacy.🤔

31. 2:37 so basically the french were concerned because he doesn't spy on the telegram users in order to "moderate" the app?

32. I don’t use telegram because social media apps sucks. But I strongly feel this guy speech about who uses Telegram is one sided. He is trying to make me believe only the bad guys use telegram for private messaging.

33. 😂😂😂He's a devil just like putin. Black shadow where soul used to be.

34. Catherine Bennett is an Observer columnist,
    Catherine Benet's article questioning Imran Khan's suitability as a candidate for Chancellor at Oxford University based on his nationality and political views,

    It is important to remember that the position of Chancellor at Oxford University should be based on qualifications, achievements, and dedication to public service, skepticism about Imran Khan's candidacy for the Chancellorship at Oxford University, it is vital to highlight the immense potential he brings to this prestigious role.

    Imran Khan's notable achievements as a well-respected philanthropist, his unwavering support for humanity through the establishment of free cancer hospitals, unversities and his dedication to providing quality education at no cost to those in need, stand as shining examples of his visionary leadership in service to community.

    Additionally, his relentless pursuit of accountability and justice for the misuse of public funds showcases his integrity and unwavering principles.
