Telegram CEO Pavel Durov lawyer says charges 'ridiculous'
The billionaire was detained in Paris and is being investigated in relation to a lack of moderation on the messaging app.
Lawyers always say that. It would be newsworthy if a lawyer said the charges were reasonable and well-founded.
Also in article, Elon Musk shits himself loudly again hoping someone will pay attention to him.
They are the same type of insane eugenics racists, per Wikipedia:
Since 2010 he has fathered over 100 children via sperm donation in 12 nations.

EU: “Why aren’t there many homegrown major Tech companies here?”
Also EU: “Let’s arrest this tech company CEO because he allows users to send encrypted messages to each other, and won’t “moderate” them by holding the keys, decrypting the messages, and sharing them with law enforcement when asked.”
The app is accused of failure to cooperate with law enforcement over drug trafficking, child sexual content and fraud.
That is, authorities know that that stuff happens on the platform, probably by infiltrating groups, and telegram refused to take actions which would've been within their powers to aid in getting a hand on those people. Actions which probably were court-ordered. That, indeed, is being accessory to crimes. I say throw the book at him, lock him up, and confiscate his property as being profits of crimes.
There's one single way to avoid sending data to police when they have evidence that something criminal is going on: Don't have that data. Which brings us then to the next topic, and that's that Telegram is not actually a secure platform.
