Telegram linked to an “abuse economy” built on the invasion of ordinary women's privacy

fiqiluvo.epileto: > They do hash checks on known CSAM/other abusive media. It’s absurd to demand Telegram to spend millions on surveillance tech otherwise. The simple fact that Telegram has a history of ignoring request suggests that they are not serious about stopping abuse. If abuse websites can also generate advertising revenue through Telegram’s premium subscriptions that also suggests a lax attitude. I am not remotely convinces that Telegram is doing their best. Especially when I know that they have a history of deception.
