In addition, Telegram's architecture limits the ability to slow the spread of false information: the lack of a central public feed, and the fact that comments are easily disabled in channels, reduce the space for public pushback.

Official government accounts have also spread fake fact checks.

The video, which has amassed almost 30,000 views, offered a "how-to" spot misinformation.
