As the era changed from the Meiji to the Taisho era, the existence of Santa Claus seems to have become quite widespread among Japanese children. There it was in the December 1914 issue of the children's magazine Kodomo no Tomo. An old man with a white beard wearing a red hat, red clothing and a wide belt around his waist.

In a statement, the regulator said the search and seizure operation was carried out against seven individuals and one corporate entity at multiple locations in Ahmedabad and Bhavnagar in Gujarat, Neemuch in Madhya Pradesh, Delhi, and Mumbai. Telegram boasts 500 million users, who share information individually and in groups in relative security. But Telegram's use as a one-way broadcast channel — which followers can join but not reply to — means content from inauthentic accounts can easily reach large, captive and eager audiences. The fake Zelenskiy account reached 20,000 followers on Telegram before it was shut down, a remedial action that experts say is all too rare. Founder Pavel Durov says tech is meant to set you free
