  • This implies NATO initiated something that led to a war.

    Reality is that everything was initiated by Putin who only thought about how to gain popularity within Russia. He never assumed it would be a war, it was always a 3-day operation for him. Crimea operation went well for him. Ukraine - not so much.

    I’m sorry but that doesn’t seem logical. If you don’t care about general good state of things, why would you care about the majority? People refer to democracy as a good thing because the US showed how it improves the system, lives etc.

    The equality aspect itself is what I’d like to support. But when you find the majority being uneducated to understand what they are doing - something is going wrong with our assumptions about how things should work. An idiot should not be highly respected. A criminal should not have the power over people’s lives. These things should have been more basic than democracy principles in everyone’s mind, no?







  • It actually seems more like a windows 10 compatibility dilemma for developers. You can support older systems but it would require some effort. The problem is not the absence of some specific certificates, but the absence of newer ciphers altogether.

    This does give security but also removes backwards compatibility with some clients that might be important for some websites.






  • No, just personal experience (I use telegram for many years) and absence of server data implications anywhere across the issues in the past (at this time too). You can find questionable or illegal businesses in telegram with a few words, they are all public channels. Hence “no moderation” accuses mentioned in every article.

    There are of course darknet-like private communities, but I assume they are not a subject of interest at this time. Authorities would need to dig very deep past all the obvious illegal stuff, and telegram shouldn’t care about resources consumed by such a small chunk of user base. Those groups will stay, as they are, private and safe, I assume, for quite some time.






  • It’s barely anonymous, and poorly encrypted. The latter is the reason Durov is in custody

    There is no logic here. If it was poor it would be very easy to track anyone including criminals. You can check the news to find the reasons.

    There have absolutely been cases where a backdoor/weakness/lack of encryption used to catch criminals before

    I meant telegram related cases.

    Some are staying safe, others are being caught precisely because of this.

    I didn’t see any proofs of that.

    Using better encryption schemes is definitely part of that.

    Part of what? I don’t get the point here.
