  • Not much of this makes sense. Maybe we don’t have an equal understanding of private. If thats the case, this discussion is going nowhere.

    I will point out, though, that this is particularly nonsensical

    Govts are only after Telegram because they can’t infiltrate the company, ask for data etc.

    Telegram doesn’t use encryption. Everything is in clear text. Nobody needs a back door to get access. Not even governments. It’s all just out in the open


  • I’m not sure what point you’re trying to make here. You start by agreeing that telegram is simply not private. Then you move on to implying that it must be, because the CEO got arrested?

    How does that change the fact that it is, by your own assessment, not private?

    To answer your question, the answer from my perspective is quite simple. Noncompliance. If telegram had complied to local laws, like the others have and continue to do, he would not have gotten in trouble.





  • Not as ludicrous as it sounds.

    Before I continue, I just want to state that what I’m about to say doesn’t excuse what happened. I’m merely trying to give a reason why the ramp may not have been used.

    Health and safety regulations specify how steep an access ramp can be. Depending on the height of the stage, this might mean the ramp needs to be very long. Having a ramp around that was/is used for something else doesn’t mean it was necessarily suitable for this use case.

    I organised events for over decade up until covid, and the ramp requirement was always a question on my checklist for this exact reason. The blame here almost certainly lies entirely at the feet of the organisers, not the poor sods on the front line who were (probably) provided inadequate equipment.

    That’s my take anyway
