Well you don't even seem to know that the Swizz is not part of the EU. And by being arrested in Spain confirms my point.

Did you know they use the Signal protocol? So literally the same encryption scheme?

Besides, the military isn't smarter than 30 universities independently confirming the security.

Telegram chats are not encrypted by default, only Secret chat is which is not synced to Desktop and only works on one-to-one chats, no groups.

Why signal developer not with Durov?

Because almost all data is encrypted. They don't even know who is messaging whom. How can they be charged with crimes they didn't commit? They don't know what their users are using the messenger for, so they can just deny everything.

UPD: and you can read messages and listen calls in any chat in signal.

No you can't unless you have access to the phone itself. It's impossible. You clearly have no idea what you're talking about.

This has nothing to do with privacy either. First of all Telegram is not a private messenger. Secondly, this is a about public forums and groups called Channels. This has nothing to do with backdoors eithe. They are simply asking them to do moderation on chats they already have access too.

Telegram has full access to this data and knowingly ignores child pornography and other criminal activity. If Facebook did such a thing for years you'd be screaming right now.

Do you have any idea what the cost is to restore 50 TB from that?

I assumed you're only paying per GB storage. At least that's what their S3 pricing page says. I believe transfer cost only applies if you transfer from one S3 solution to another. I'm not using it myself, so I don't know the details. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

What happens when they decide to raise the price?

If you depend on AWS you're doing something wrong. You should at least adher to the 3-2-1 backup plan. If you do so, you can switch away from AWS any time they change their policy.

Everything that's encrypted is private and secure. There are messengers that encrypt your messages, profile, who you message, contacts, etc. Use those. If you're particularly paranoid, read the code and build from source.

That's why he hired an economist as his minister of defense.

If you're this paranoid for your backups, I'd just go with AWS Glacia and dump all your encrypted data twice a year. You can get a TB of backup for about 1 € / month.

Surely you will

Dumbass didn't encrypt the chats and didn't do moderation according to local laws. If Facebook did the same as his company did, Mark Zuckerberg would share his fate.

This is unrelated to privacy. Telegram isn't even a private messenger...

That's what they say. I only trust encryption and not people.
