MODERATORS
So, wading in here with a gut reaction and no nuance, he's charged with all these crimes because the platform he runs has them being organized between its users?
Who do we arrest if a crime is organized via phone call on T-Mobile's network, or via mail?
Is it a case of cooperation, where Telegram is completely refusing to help, or is it just a case of "encryption bad, privacy bad" from the French government?
On the same disclaimer, I'm betting on the latter.
Allegedly the former. By "allegedly", I mean that Telegram is definitely uncooperative in moderation of illegal content, the alleged part is that that is the motivation behind the arrest. I also read somewhere that he was accused of tapping into Macron's manager's communications, but I can't find the article and I don't know how reliable that statement is.
So in turn... your comment is just as unreliable.
