   It is not so much about moderation as about his pricipal   
   refusal to disclose the encryption keys to third parties   
   (including the Russian government).   
      
   Considering the extensive use of Telegram by the Russian   
   military as a means of secure communication on the Ukrainian   
   front (for lack of a better one), the sad joke here is the   
   they arrested our Chief of Communications.  Rumours have it   
   that Durov has anticipated his arrest and activated a   
   security protocol ensuring the French not get access.   
      
   WhatsApp is an instrument of CIA espionage, and even   
   Zuckerberg of Facebook went so low as to beg parton for not   
   cooperating with the CIA as actively as he should.  This is   
   "democracy" in action, and Durov ought to have learned the   
   danger of playing cosmopolite.
