I think many people have already heard the news about the detention of Telegram founder Pavel Durov.
he was released on bail and, as far as the press knows, with some additional conditions on the messenger's operation.
In France, he was accused of the messenger of not cooperating sufficiently or at all with authorities and law enforcement when users from the French Republic violated local laws.
After some time of interrogations, after Pavel Durov was released on bail, and also he officially commented on his page on questions regarding the future of the messenger Telegram.
He officially said that improvements have already been made to the User Agreement and that problematic content is no longer available.
Most importantly, he officially recognized that IP addresses, phone numbers will now be released to law enforcement agencies upon a properly legal request.
According to Durov, these measures will deter malicious users.
My opinion is that this is just a demonstration, that no real encryption keys will be issued. That requests will not be processed instantaneously and they will only be of a nature where a person may threaten the security of the state. But how far this notion can go no one knows yet.
In any case, in terms of functionality, accessibility, everyone will continue to use Telegram, but it is important that for work it is worth using a second or third phone, with a permanently enabled VPN, as well as with numbers that are not registered to you or loved ones.
