I’m pretty sure that if everything would have been EE2E on Telegram it would never have reached the size and popularity that it has.
Plenty of people are showering unearned privacy brownie points on Telegram already. There’s a bizarre Telegram/Signal beef online since forever.
Granted. I was mainly thinking from the angle of “how to I keep the prosecution from having a slam-dunk case against Durov” here.
Also, it seems my expectations from privacy nuts were a bit higher than I expected.
I think the prosecution will have a hard time, but I don’t know anything about French internet law. But if it’s a weird-ass protection deal to keep Durov out of Russia’s hands, it might just be smoke and mirrors anyway.

I don’t know what you’re saying here because it makes no sense. No one who uses or shills for Telegram thinks lack of EE2E is a good thing, absolutely no one. They use it despite of lack of EE2E (ignorance or ideologically-flavored ignorance).
i have no idea why people say that telegram is private and secure and whatever, it’s just whatsapp/twitter hybrid for former soviet union people
