MODERATORS
More people need to understand this, Telegram was never trustworthy to begin with.
They spent years lying about their encryption algorithms too acting like they're more secure than Signal when they never were
Signal cares so much about your privacy that they need your phone number.
Privacy ≠ anonominity.
