    you know Telegram is secure when governments are trying to arrest the founder.

    The French kidnapping of Pavel Durov is a huge violation of human rights.

      Alternatively: It is not (and generally not even encrypted) and he just happened to be in contempt.

      Plenty of military-oriented and shady-business going in in there.

      There’s still the possibility that the authorities wanted to go after specific someones with a proper warrant and Durov blocked it. No country on earth goes for that.

      We’ll get to know the charges soon enough.
