Telegram Introduces User Reporting for Private Chats Following Founder’s Arrest
Telegram has updated its policy to allow users to report private chats to moderators after founder Pavel Durov's arrest in France over alleged crimes related to content on the platform. The app, which has nearly 1 billion monthly users, has introduced a "Report" button for flagging illegal content and an email for automated takedown requests.
Durov's arrest is part of an investigation into child sexual abuse images, drug trafficking, and fraud. He criticized the legal approach, stating it is wrong to hold a CEO responsible for third-party actions on their platform, warning that such accountability could hinder innovation.
