🚨 Durov Slams the “Backdoor” Law! Is Telegram Under Threat?
Pavel Durov strongly condemned the EU’s push for a so-called “backdoor” in end-to-end encryption — a loophole that could give law enforcement access to millions of users' private data.
“This isn’t fighting crime — it’s attacking freedom!” said the Telegram founder.
He believes weakening encryption in major messengers won’t stop criminals, but will instead drive them into smaller, unregulated apps. Worse, such backdoors could be exploited by hackers and malicious actors.
In 12 years, Telegram hasn’t leaked a single byte of private messages — and Durov doesn’t plan on changing that.
