FAMOUS, INFAMOUS и UNFAMOUS – что к чему? (и кто есть кто?)
все три происходят от латинского "famosus" ("известный, полный слухов") и связаны со словом "fama" ("слава, репутация")
благодаря приставке отрицания in-, infamous (ударение на первый слог) означает "лишенный доброго имени" или "печально известный" (НЕ неизвестный!!)
как как же сказать "неизвестный"? формально логичное сочетание un- + famous даёт нам тот самый unfamous - слово довольно странное, звучащее ненатурально. вместо него выбираем unknown или obscure #prvdence_лексика

Asked about its stance on disinformation, Telegram spokesperson Remi Vaughn told AFP: "As noted by our CEO, the sheer volume of information being shared on channels makes it extremely difficult to verify, so it's important that users double-check what they read." On February 27th, Durov posted that Channels were becoming a source of unverified information and that the company lacks the ability to check on their veracity. He urged users to be mistrustful of the things shared on Channels, and initially threatened to block the feature in the countries involved for the length of the war, saying that he didn’t want Telegram to be used to aggravate conflict or incite ethnic hatred. He did, however, walk back this plan when it became clear that they had also become a vital communications tool for Ukrainian officials and citizens to help coordinate their resistance and evacuations. Also in the latest update is the ability for users to create a unique @username from the Settings page, providing others with an easy way to contact them via Search or their t.me/username link without sharing their phone number. Two days after Russia invaded Ukraine, an account on the Telegram messaging platform posing as President Volodymyr Zelenskiy urged his armed forces to surrender. "Russians are really disconnected from the reality of what happening to their country," Andrey said. "So Telegram has become essential for understanding what's going on to the Russian-speaking world."
