Telegram Founder: Better to Exit the Market than to Undermine Encryption Technology through Backdoors
According to PANews, Telegram founder Pavel Durov stated in an official TG channel that last month, France almost banned encryption technology. The Senate passed a law requiring communication applications to set up backdoors for police access to private information. Fortunately, this law was vetoed by the National Assembly. However, three days ago, the head of the Paris police once again voiced support for this law. Because technically, it cannot be guaranteed that only the police can access the backdoor. Once a backdoor is introduced, it could be exploited by other parties - from foreign spies to hackers. Therefore, the private information of all law-abiding citizens could be at risk.
