@GrapheneOS while there are actual security concerns about Telegram's way of handling data, there has been no known case of the messenger disclosing actual conversations, which means that they still respect the privacy of their users, even if it only stands on their word of honor.

Also, claims about lack of moderation are also fake, Telegram is known for banning channels and users for various reasons.

Overall, all of this is a test of a right for privacy, which Telegram actually was respecting

They like to imply they haven't complied with warrants requesting data but that does not appear to be the case. One example:

Not our area of our expertise.

By misleading users about what they can access and what they provide?

@WerySkok You're right, they are banning channels. Not those of criminals or Neo-Nazis, but those of whistleblowers who published leaked data from the Israeli ministry of "justice"

This is yet another reason not to use this insecure garbage app that cooperates with the Russian and Israeli fascist governments.
