Pavel Durov (founder/CEO of Telegram):
“I’m turning 41, but I don’t feel like celebrating.
Our generation is running out of time to save the free Internet built for us by our fathers.
What was once the promise of the free exchange of information is being turned into the ultimate tool of control.
Once-free countries are introducing dystopian measures such as digital IDs (UK), online age checks (Australia), and mass scanning of private messages (EU).
Germany is persecuting anyone who dares to criticize officials on the Internet. The UK is imprisoning thousands for their tweets. France is criminally investigating tech leaders who defend freedom and privacy.
A dark, dystopian world is approaching fast — while we’re asleep. Our generation risks going down in history as the last one that had freedoms — and allowed them to be taken away.
We’ve been fed a lie.
We’ve been made to believe that the greatest fight of our generation is to destroy everything our forefathers left us: tradition, privacy, sovereignty, the free market, and free speech.
By betraying the legacy of our ancestors, we’ve set ourselves on a path toward self-destruction — moral, intellectual, economic, and ultimately biological.
So no, I’m not going to celebrate today. I’m running out of time. We are running out of time.”

"We must break with the totally ERRONEOUS perception that it is everyone's civil LIBERTY to communicate on encrypted messaging services."
Said Danish Minister of Justice and chief architect of the current Chat Control proposal, Peter Hummelgaard.


[EU chat control law] would essentially ELIMINATE ENCRYPTED MESSAGING, requiring services such as Telegram, WhatsApp and Signal AND NOSTR to allow regulators to screen messages BEFORE they are encrypted and sent.
