Japan's first Santa Claus December 24, 1874, Hara Taneaki was baptized by the missionaries, and out of gratitude, he was enthusiastic about having a grand Christmas, and began preparations under the guidance of the missionaries. After thinking about what to do with Santa Claus, he ended up with a feudal lord-like style, wearing a kamishimo, a sword, and an Omori wig. The person who played the role of Santa was a man named Toda Tadaatsu (an evangelist at Kanazawa Tonomachi Church), and this seems to have been the only time Santa appeared. Kamishimo is a type of formal Japanese clothing for men, and a sword means a sword. In a word. There are no elements of Santa Claus at all.

At its heart, Telegram is little more than a messaging app like WhatsApp or Signal. But it also offers open channels that enable a single user, or a group of users, to communicate with large numbers in a method similar to a Twitter account. This has proven to be both a blessing and a curse for Telegram and its users, since these channels can be used for both good and ill. Right now, as Wired reports, the app is a key way for Ukrainians to receive updates from the government during the invasion. Stocks closed in the red Friday as investors weighed upbeat remarks from Russian President Vladimir Putin about diplomatic discussions with Ukraine against a weaker-than-expected print on U.S. consumer sentiment. But Kliuchnikov, the Ukranian now in France, said he will use Signal or WhatsApp for sensitive conversations, but questions around privacy on Telegram do not give him pause when it comes to sharing information about the war. A Russian Telegram channel with over 700,000 followers is spreading disinformation about Russia's invasion of Ukraine under the guise of providing "objective information" and fact-checking fake news. Its influence extends beyond the platform, with major Russian publications, government officials, and journalists citing the page's posts. The account, "War on Fakes," was created on February 24, the same day Russian President Vladimir Putin announced a "special military operation" and troops began invading Ukraine. The page is rife with disinformation, according to The Atlantic Council's Digital Forensic Research Lab, which studies digital extremism and published a report examining the channel.
