imagine how western media would screech and cry if China arrested Steve Huffman or Myanmar arrested Mark Zuckerberg
France is setting a very dangerous precedent with this move
Please President Xi... please...
if Zuckerberg had Chinese citizenship, sure
why would Chinese citizenship matter to Myanmar
lol true, but you get what i mean
Left Russia because of the state pushing him out of VK for resisting orders over users involved in the Maidan thing in Ukraine, went thru special French naturalization for billionaires just to get arrested there.
I just assumed Telegram was some NATO aligned thing from the start, whether this joker knew it or not. I guess that wasn't entirely true.

went thru special French naturalization for billionaires just to get arrested there.
holy fucking shit. this is one of the dumbest moves of all time

all the other social media apps do cooperate -- even tiktok
Broad Investigation? Like arresting women?
I mean he was probably arrested for something else but anytime i checked my local chatgroups it was all people looking for hard drugs and underage girls. Some of them accounts who were crying on russian telegrams about trans people ruining kids. So that actually is a problem.
I’m in exactly one Telegram channel and it’s just videos of Israeli troops getting blown up
this is the real reason they want to shut it down... Ukraine and Israel having hissy fits that people are seeing information they didn't approve
Cool af
Not sure what’s up in ur local chat groups, but I promise you the moral reasons are not at the heart of the crackdown
Yeah, that's what i specified at first.
Reinforcing that point!
