every encrypted messenger service is complicit in pedophelia apparently.
I mean yes but that's like saying Bitcoin is used by criminals to buy drugs and weapons. The problem is that's not their only use.
Wait till you hear about the idiots who unironically make that argument for banning Bitcoin too
Bitcoin is a bad example, since it's not designed as a private currency. Monero/XMR is actually usable.
That's like saying Voat isn't only used by incel trolls who got banned from reddit

I dont think Telegram is something that I would call an "encrypted messenger"
i dont get this. it can be used as one. its being seen as criminal because of its ability to send encrypted messages. comments like this are meaningless.
Yeah and still we should not push the message that Telegrams encryption is even remotely close to other encrypted messengers. I met more than one person that somehow thought their messages in Telegram are "safer" than they are in WhatsApp (and they never activated the encrypted chat oprion in Telegram)
No ones pushing anything brother.
No, every service provider must remove infringing content when reported. That is not the case on Telegram.
