The Russian-made app, according to a new report from Guardio, has, in recent times, evolved into a thriving center where experienced cybercriminals and beginners can openly share illegal tools and knowledge—a "scammers paradise." As a result, a dark and well-organized supply chain of tools and victims' data has emerged... As the Guardio report clearly demonstrated, there is very little, if anything, secure about Telegram, contrary to popular reports. The paradox lies in Telegram's emphasis on its security and privacy features, despite there being no automatic end-to-end encryption in place; instead, message protection relies on policies rather than technology. Such a...

This move by the Spanish court to block Telegram nationwide is a blatant attack on freedom of speech and expression. It’s concerning to see media companies leveraging legal maneuvers to stifle competition and silence dissenting voices. Instead of addressing their concerns through dialogue and negotiation, they resort to heavy-handed tactics, infringing on the rights of millions of users.

Ukraine 5 (vanity) The onslaught of Biden/media war propaganda, for a war America is not fighting, is setting the table for continued Russian sanctions, additional Ukraine funding and further widening of the rift between Russia and America. In order to help counter the Biden/media propaganda, I signed up for the Russian social media app called Telegram. It is a cross between Twitter and WhatsApp, IMO. The main account to follow is “Intel Slava Z” and also “ASB Military News” is good too. These accounts have first hand images and videos from the front lines and they say and show the...

The messages are being posted in Telegram chatrooms where white supremacist content has been freely shared for months, but chatter on the channels has increased since extremists have been forced off other...

Belgium's telegram service is about to stop. Stop. One hundred and seventy-one years after the first electronic message was transmitted down a line running alongside the railway between Brussels and Antwerp the final dispatch will be sent and received on 29 December. The fact that this 19th-Century technology is still up and running in the age of Instagram and Snapchat may seem rather odd - especially when you consider that the UK, which invented the telegram in the 1830s, abandoned it as long ago as 1982. The United States followed suit in 2006 and even India, which had been by...
