S. Stephen, Stephanos - "the crowned" - offers us perhaps the most stirring condemnation of the Jews we find in Scripture outside the words of Our Lord Himself. Like Our Lord, and like all martyrs, he was made to suffer because he held up a mirror to sinful men confirmed in their viciousness; like the fool of Proverbs, they hated him for the truth he showed them.
Let all our words and all our actions remind us and those around us of our unworthiness before God, that we may be the wise man who loves correction, and be crowned by the Truth to which we witness. S. Stephane, ora pro nobis!

Emerson Brooking, a disinformation expert at the Atlantic Council's Digital Forensic Research Lab, said: "Back in the Wild West period of content moderation, like 2014 or 2015, maybe they could have gotten away with it, but it stands in marked contrast with how other companies run themselves today." After fleeing Russia, the brothers founded Telegram as a way to communicate outside the Kremlin's orbit. They now run it from Dubai, and Pavel Durov says it has more than 500 million monthly active users. Just days after Russia invaded Ukraine, Durov wrote that Telegram was "increasingly becoming a source of unverified information," and he worried about the app being used to "incite ethnic hatred." For example, WhatsApp restricted the number of times a user could forward something, and developed automated systems that detect and flag objectionable content. 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.
