Yeah, until he leaves France. After that it’s business as usual.
You know all these social media apps exist and make money because WE are the product and avail ourselves willingly to them. Let’s just leave social media en masse and fuck Muski and his clones. Let them preside over armies of Russian bots talking to each other. They deserve each other.
Huh? Private chats? I thought this was about group chats. How can they moderate private chats using end-to-end encryption?
Are you telling me that arresting the leaders of mega corps can force those corps to stop breaking the law? Can we apply this to OTHER corps?
The Russians plan their entire missions and maintain contacts through the app because of the end to end encryption so this will be bad for them in that aspect
Lmao what a headline only in 2024
Arresting him was about opening up private communications for the government. The EU wants to BAN end to end encryption. This is about control and the criminal activity framing is just an excuse to do this.
This has always been a problem. There’s a reason telegram’s biggest demographics are criminals and furries.
That app has so many scammers and just bad groups overall it’s a miracle it hasn’t imploded yet regardless
What are they gonna do when one-time pads come vack into fashion? Jail who invented them?
One can still be aiding and abetting criminal activities. Without intention or knowledge doesn’t stop one’s responsibility. Since you creat a place for some criminals to gather, you must cooperate with law enforcement, just like a local bar owner.
But they were supposed to be e2e encrypted – how are they moderating them?
¯\_(ツ)_/¯ just use signal
Close all the nudes, murder and terrorist channels for crying out loud
Quit fuckin with my plugs
So good that there’s Signal
That’s fucked up. I’ve never used it. I use a different encrypted messaging service. The EU is straight tyrannical.
No way…
After reading some comments, the main take is that Telegram users have no fucking idea how it actually work.
And they think it’s an amazing piece of tech made for freedom.
Regarding privacy, for privacy enthusiasts, I understand how its concerning that Telegram doesnt do E2E encryption by default, and instead chats are (supposedly) encrypted in the cloud (server side encryption) with their own protocol.
However, my hot take is that if its good enough for terrorists and criminals to use the platform, I would think its good enough for the everyday person.
All the telegram freaks about to lose their shit right now
If this messes with my black market weed I’m gonna be suuuuuper pissed 😑
Terrorists hate this.
