Telegram is just actually superior in terms of features I don’t get it.

Do you live in Russia? Who can really use that information to damage you somehow, the USA or Russia? If you live in the US or in a country subservient to their government is better to being spied by Russia on that case.

I’ve made this exact argument many times. As a US citizen Russia and China have no power over me so it’s better for me to have my info there than at home. A person’s own government may use their info as a means of direct control while a foreign government can’t do that.
