✍ من فرمانروایانی را که اکثریت مردم را دشمن خود ساختهاند و مجبورند برای حفظ مقام خود به زور توسل جویند، بدبخت میدانم زیرا آنکه دشمنان اندکی دارد بآسانی میتواند خود را از گزند آنان مصون نگاه دارد ولی کسی که اکثریت مردمان با او دشمنند هرگز روی ایمنی و آسایش نمیبیند و هر چه بیشتر ستمگری پیشه کند حکومت خود را ضعیفتر میسازد. از این رو بهترین راهی که قدرتمندان در پیش میتوانند گرفت این است که بکوشند تا دوستی مردم را جلب کنند.

Pavel Durov, Telegram's CEO, is known as "the Russian Mark Zuckerberg," for co-founding VKontakte, which is Russian for "in touch," a Facebook imitator that became the country's most popular social networking site. Multiple pro-Kremlin media figures circulated the post's false claims, including prominent Russian journalist Vladimir Soloviev and the state-controlled Russian outlet RT, according to the DFR Lab's report. Telegram was co-founded by Pavel and Nikolai Durov, the brothers who had previously created VKontakte. VK is Russia’s equivalent of Facebook, a social network used for public and private messaging, audio and video sharing as well as online gaming. In January, SimpleWeb reported that VK was Russia’s fourth most-visited website, after Yandex, YouTube and Google’s Russian-language homepage. In 2016, Forbes’ Michael Solomon described Pavel Durov (pictured, below) as the “Mark Zuckerberg of Russia.” Since its launch in 2013, Telegram has grown from a simple messaging app to a broadcast network. Its user base isn’t as vast as WhatsApp’s, and its broadcast platform is a fraction the size of Twitter, but it’s nonetheless showing its use. While Telegram has been embroiled in controversy for much of its life, it has become a vital source of communication during the invasion of Ukraine. But, if all of this is new to you, let us explain, dear friends, what on Earth a Telegram is meant to be, and why you should, or should not, need to care. "There are a lot of things that Telegram could have been doing this whole time. And they know exactly what they are and they've chosen not to do them. That's why I don't trust them," she said.
