EU Founder and CEO of encrypted messenger Telegram questioned in France - Telegram founder Pavel Durov detained on arriving in France from Azerbaijan. shit is VERY BAD

https://www.tf1info.fr/justice-fait...ee-telegram-interpelle-en-france-2316072.html ( archived https://archive.ph/edvkC )

Pavel Durov, the founder and CEO of the encrypted messaging Telegram, was arrested around 8 p.m. this Saturday evening when he got off his private jet on the Tarmac of Bourget Airport. This 39-year-old, this Franco-Russian was accompanied by her bodyguard and a woman.

The arrest was carried out by the gendarmes of the GTA (gendarmerie of air transport). Boarded at the FPR (File of Les Persons sought), Pavel Durov arrived straight from Azerbaijan. Above the head he had a French research mandate issued by the OFMIN of the National Directorate of the French Judicial Police issued on the basis of a preliminary investigation.
Why was he under the threat of a research mandate?
Justice considers that the absence of moderation, cooperation with the police and the tools proposed by Telegram (disposable number, cryptocurrencies ...) makes it accomplice of drug trafficking, pedocriminal offenses and scam.

This research mandate ran if, and only if, Pavel Durov was on the national territory. "He committed a dumpling tonight. We don't know why ... was this flight only a step? In any case, he is boxed!", Slips a source close to the investigation at TF1/ LCI. Since he had known himself persona non grata in France, Pavel Durov used to travel to the Emirates, in the countries of the ex-USSR, in South America ... He traveled very little in Europe and avoided the countries where Telegram is under surveillance.

And now ?
Investigators of the ONAF (National Antifraude Office attached to the Customs Department) notified him and placed him in police custody. It should be presented to an investigating judge this Saturday evening before a possible indictment on Sunday for a multitude of offenses: terrorism, narcotics, complicity, fraud, laundering, concealment, pedocriminal content ...

"Pavel Durov will end up in pre -trial detention, for sure," comments an investigator from TF1/LCI. "On his platform, he suggested an incalculable number of crimes and crimes for which he does nothing to moderate or cooperate," analyzes a source close to the file.

His pre -trial detention at the end of his indictment is in fact no doubt. Pavel Durov, a billionaire, has substantial means for fleeing and its guarantees of representation will hardly convince the judges.

A draft to international resonance
For investigators, this draft with international resonance with various objectives. First, it allows you to kick the anthill, impress and dissuade the authors of crimes and crimes which, so far freely, on Telegram. Then, they aim to put pressure on European countries to accentuate the common work to bend the encrypted messaging on terrorist files.

Indeed, Telegram is a hive for criminal content. At the moment, the platform is making the news with the illegal broadcast of Ligue 1. matches but on this encrypted messaging, many accounts are used by organized crime. Beyond terrorism, the most dangerous pedocriminals communicate on Telegram to exchange content. "For years it has become the number 1 platform for organized crime," comments an investigator.

 

[Q !!Hs1Jq13jV6]

but for causing them due to lack of moderation?

yes
but in this case telegram could technically do something as a large amount of chats are likely not E2EE
and that fucks your chances for claiming you didn't know what was going on on your servers
they're more in a similar situation to an obvious piracy site that handles the occasional takedown request
instead of a service that cannot take part in moderation due to lack of insight as to what the users are doing
although this is obviously the european police being petty against chat services they just have a chance here to completely fuck the guy over

 

[Divine right to rule]

Lol, fuck the French.
Nobody likes them.

They're like the USA of Europe.

That's Serbia.

 

[Cherry Eyed Hamster]

Jumping in here to say it before any retard claims it: nobody voted for this.

 

[Adolf Kotler]

Might as well be with how the EU has more legal control over every country in it's umbrella as time goes on. Accept the encroaching federalization of your region europoor!

Brexit ring any bells? Although the UK is still unfortunately part of the cancerous ECHR....

 

[Divine right to rule]

Jumping in here to say it before any retard claims it: nobody voted for this.

Unpopular stances are never part of political platforms.
Nobody in Europe technically voted for immigration. All the parties just decided that it would happen.

 

[General Emílio Médici]

The faggotry is amazing to see.

At least Putin is honest when he arrests you for talking shit about him.

Jumping in here to say it before any retard claims it: nobody voted for this.

French politicians tend to tow party lines less after the traditional coalitions fell apart so a lot of French voters have only an idea of what they're voting for. I think that's why they prefer to affect change through riots.

 

[namelesstacotruck]

Unaccountable olgiarchies? In Europe?

Say it isn't so! I'm more genuinely suprised they went for this guy before Elon.

Yes I know arresting Elon might be nuts, but European absolute monarchs and sanity have always been a rare combination.

They are setting up the precedent. And musk is protected due to spacex

Nobody watches that league, and France doesn't give a fuck about the abuse of minors. Polanski, a serial rapist and pedophile, has been living there for a while.

 

[Wodanaz]

Telegram allows criminals to commit all sorts of exceptionally heinous crimes, like:
-Criticizing the French Government
-Suggesting the French Government be changed
-Questioning if the French Government is competent, and most shockingly
-Expressing dismay at the actions of the French Government

la lame de la guillotine doit tomber quelque part

Imagine being French lol.

 

[The Bunk]

If Josh were Russian, the Rozkomnadzor would've just gotten him v&.

Nigga, you do understand that if Josh was born Ivan Lunov in Saratov, then he'd be figuring out his place in prison hierarchy just about now? I mean, half the threads in thunderdome would consitute a felony, not to mention shit people post on the site, and no, Russia does not have article 230.
My point is, if I have to choose between sucking tranny dick and having phone wires attached to my balls, then I'd rather not choose at all.

 

[Elwood P. Dowd]

Honhonhon you lacque de jannie? Enjoy le prison child'e stalkeur.

The telegram founder did, how you say, les oopsiês des doòdles.

 

[Gog & Magog]

My memory is hazy, but I think he renounced his Russian citizenship shortly after he left the country.
EDIT:
quote from Wikipedia - "Durov was naturalized as French in August 2021 and now has European Union citizenship."
He is so fucked

Guy should have become an American citizen and then moved into the same apartment as Null over in Serbia.

Imagine being French lol.

You don't know what you're missing.

For instance, the wondrous French Republic has a dedicated "Central Office for Combatting Crimes Against Humanity, Genocide and War Crime" whose last main accomplishment was the successful extradition of Vincent Reynouard, a chemical engineer, former maths teacher and father of 8, who was hidden in a remote Scottish village after having fled a previous arrest attempt in London, where he was exiled since 2015. His crime? WWII revisionism. In short: it tracks down people who say mean words online. Heroic, isn't it?

As of this case, as the article says, many normies on French Xitter are worried because the notorious hacker nicknamed "Telegram" apparently managed to provide French football matches for free (since the new broadcaster's deal was deemed way too expensive), and thus claim he was arrested because of that.

One thing is certain: for several years now, France has had delusions of grandeur and a desire to censor the global Internet, clearly having difficulty understanding the concept of sites hosted abroad and therefore subject to foreign laws.

Take the Avia law, which was voted by the French MPs before being ultimately mostly cancelled (it could have never been enforced anyway). See why below with this appalling display of lunacy.

By wanting to introduce a ‘single reporting button’ common to all platforms, the MP wants to make it easier for Internet users to find their way around. With the same button, and therefore the same logo, on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter or Youtube, the possibility of reporting content becomes more visible - even if it means making it known to younger people from school onwards: ‘(We need) to be able to report illegal content quickly, with just a few clicks. This will make it more visible, but we also need to simplify the reporting mechanisms, with precise categories for the facts to be reported’, says Laetitia Avia, who wants to modernise these forms and make them easier to read and more effective.

According to the bill, reports should be processed within 24 hours. ‘Today, reports are already dealt with, but the platforms have no targets for results’ regrets the MEP, who explains that she wants to oblige social networks to respond quickly to reports and to explain to users in an e-mail what they have done in response to the alert.

Platforms will also be obliged to report publicly on the actions they have taken to combat cyber-hate and the results of their handling of illegal content. In the event of non-compliance, an administrative penalty of up to 4% of turnover would be imposed by the Conseil supérieur de l'audiovisuel (CSA). This could amount to several million euros for Facebook, for example.

The American First Amendment in particular seems to be something very peculiar for the French. The criminalisation of opinions is so commonplace that the very concept would be unthinkable for many people. However, we do have instead the "Interministerial Delegation for Combating Racism, Anti-Semitism and Anti-LGBT Hatred" as well as many other Jewish or less Jewish groups who can easily leech money off of "hate speech" trials. Aren't you jealous? Admit it.

 

[Anonymus Fluhre]

So they charged him not for enabling the alleged crimes but for causing them due to lack of moderation? Fucked up, man, fucked up.

I'd say just pull out every tech company out of Europe and the UK and let them fend for themselves again, we've all seen their sad attempts at tech, or until their citizens finally do something about their governments. Rise up or fuck off.

Didn't Jersh have a small part in this saga? Like 1776 Hosting hosted the guys website for a bit, or was that some other individual disfavored by l'etat francais?
