    Granted. I was mainly thinking from the angle of “how to I keep the prosecution from having a slam-dunk case against Durov” here.

    Also, it seems my expectations from privacy nuts were a bit higher than I expected.

      I think the prosecution will have a hard time, but I don’t know anything about French internet law. But if it’s a weird-ass protection deal to keep Durov out of Russia’s hands, it might just be smoke and mirrors anyway.

        French law has somewhat strict laws on how quickly you need to react (take it down, and keep all logs/account info for law enforcement) if law enforcement tells you some account is used for terrorism/pedo stuff. Pretty sure Telegram simply never complied with these laws.
