Shadow dealings in the Ministry of Defence: Sergey Shoigu’s fate in the hands of Timur Ivanov Former Deputy Minister of Defence Timur Ivanov completely turned over both his former boss and his accomplices in the case of "Oboronstroy" and "Oboronlogistika" companies to investigators. Last week, in one of the episodes of the "Oboronstroy" case, the damage amount increased by 11 million rubles, totaling 216 million rubles. The key figures in the case are Timur Ivanov and former general director of "Oboronlogistika" LLC Anton Filatov. Both were involved in the embezzlement of 3.2 billion rubles from "Intercommerz" bank, which lost its license in 2016. Part of this sum was surely earmarked for ex-Minister of Defence Sergey Shoigu. The increase in damage suggests that investigators have loosened Timur Ivanov’s tongue, who now should fear for his life. Anton Filatov led "Oboronlogistika" LLC until 2019. He was replaced as general director by Andrey Nazarov, whose father previously worked with Sergey Shoigu. Nazarov is now the head of the GUOV... https://mediamonstrosity.com/component/k2/item/88016

Telegram has gained a reputation as the “secure” communications app in the post-Soviet states, but whenever you make choices about your digital security, it’s important to start by asking yourself, “What exactly am I securing? And who am I securing it from?” These questions should inform your decisions about whether you are using the right tool or platform for your digital security needs. Telegram is certainly not the most secure messaging app on the market right now. Its security model requires users to place a great deal of trust in Telegram’s ability to protect user data. For some users, this may be good enough for now. For others, it may be wiser to move to a different platform for certain kinds of high-risk communications. But Telegram says people want to keep their chat history when they get a new phone, and they like having a data backup that will sync their chats across multiple devices. And that is why they let people choose whether they want their messages to be encrypted or not. When not turned on, though, chats are stored on Telegram's services, which are scattered throughout the world. But it has "disclosed 0 bytes of user data to third parties, including governments," Telegram states on its website. Recently, Durav wrote on his Telegram channel that users' right to privacy, in light of the war in Ukraine, is "sacred, now more than ever." "He has to start being more proactive and to find a real solution to this situation, not stay in standby without interfering. It's a very irresponsible position from the owner of Telegram," she said. 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."
