Is it true that a Russian guy owns Telegram?

You would be correct. Two brothers started it. Can’t remember their names. Boris and Natasha.. okay teasing on those names. It’s a tad sketchy on where they’re headquartered.

“Who owns Telegram? Telegram was founded by brothers Nikolai and Pavel Durov in 2013. The brothers also previously founded Russian social network (and Facebook rival) VK, but eventually left. Durov funded the app, with partner Axel Neff (an American who also worked at VK) joining as a co-founder too.”
Thank you.
