Telegram Response.

A company owned by a Russian network engineer named Viktor Vedeneev controls thousands of Telegram IP addresses and maintains its servers.

Vedeneev’s other companies have a history of collaborating with Russia’s defense sector, the FSB security service, and other highly sensitive agencies.

Because of the way Telegram’s encryption protocols work, even users who use its “end-to-end” encryption features are vulnerable to being tracked by anyone who can monitor its network traffic.
