Ignoring the context.

Don't pirate over Telegram, it's no longer safe in terms of privacy and legal safety.

I wonder how many terrorist (and "terrorist") plots that were foiled were from compromised telegram messages. How many Ukrainian airstrikes were called from similar sources. My gut says a whole lot more than people think. Since nothing is encrypted, one backdoor is all the NSA needs to read everyone's group messages. Like the much lamer version of Crypto AG, because in this case it's an open secret.

Why would they go through all the trouble when they could simply join the channels by posing as people who belong?
