privacy

telegram just removed the part about chats being private and not given away to governments from their faq

mate telegram never was private it just is convenient. any don't be evil situation is.

using Coinbase? convenient
using your own node? can't be evil

using Signal from AppStore? convenient

in the end it's a matter of tradeoffs and for most including me there's nothign secret I have in TG

Farcaster Development Boutique @ https://dTech.vision 💜 in love with tech 🤓decentralization, fitness and oldschool rap 😎

then why use farcaster? it's not convenient compared to twitter
why do the values of decentralization end there?

also your telegram group rules say "don't leak info"

Multiple Identity VPN to Stop Browser Fingerprinting.  SimplifiedPrivacy.com

We ALSO make Web 3 open source dev tools, as well as a privacy educational center for Linux, FOSS apps, Crypto, and Arweave

You're assuming "illegal" activity is the only or primary reason for using freedom and privacy tech.

What about censorship and power?  Control over your means of expression?

Also, who even knows what defines illegal.. as corrupt SEC thugs attack Uniswap, and the entire Ethereum ecosystem comes under fire.

The rules are just to ensure the matters discussed aren’t subject to feeling afraid to be posted out if one wants to keep it private 

TG itself for the group is fine since nothing illegal is happening
