Telegram does moderation of political content they don't like.
Also Telegram does have means to control whatever they want.
And sometimes they also hide certain content from select regions.
Thus - if they make such decisions, then apparently CP and such are in their interest. Maybe to collect information for blackmail by some special services (Durov went to France from Baku, and Azerbaijan is friendly with Israel, and Mossad is even suspected of being connected to Epstein operation), maybe just for profit.
Do you have any links/sources about this? I'm not saying you’re wrong, I’m just interested
No, but they do sometimes delete channels for gore and such. I remember a few Azeri channels being banned for this during/after 2020 war.
About having means - well, with server-side stored unencrypted everything it's not a question.
About hiding channels per region by governmental requests - I've heard about that on Lemmy.
Thank you, really appreciate it!
