@rysiek Don't get me wrong; I agree with you!
But the fact they grabbed the CEO, and all this new attention... By that standard they should get to other CEO's too.

Of course it's a choice; but we also know it's difficult to make people change. I deleted Whatsapp years ago, I have lost contacts because of it.
I can't imagine how it must be to live with the constant trauma of "I'm in the middle of a war-zone" - changing platform in that situation, is surely even more difficult.

Other CEOs of what kind of services?

Facebook, Instagram, Twitter? Yeah, probably there is some responsibility to consider for unencrypted social networks.

Signal? WhatsApp? Absolutely not, these are end-to-end encrypted internet messaging services, and the service providers have no access or control over the contents of conversations.

Telegram is a social network that pretends to be an encrypted IM.

@rysiek That is exactly the question.
E2E encrypted can only be "out of the game" because nobody but the end parties know whats going on.
But "the governments" will only have a universal "apply cream to the whole body" answer to this.
#chatcontrol is a serious threat in europe - and this - what's now going on with Telegram is dangerous because of their stupid single answer.
