Центр защиты прав СМИ — одна из самых полезных организаций в нашей сфере. Они делают очень много хорошего для независимых медиа, хоть и не всегда очень видимого и громкого. Время такое, что иногда добро лучше творить в тишине. Поздравляю их и призываю поддерживать.

But it also offers open channels that enable a single user, or a group of users, to communicate with large numbers in a method similar to a Twitter account. This has proven to be both a blessing and a curse for Telegram and its users, since these channels can be used for both good and ill. Right now, as Wired reports, the app is a key way for Ukrainians to receive updates from the government during the invasion. "There are several million Russians who can lift their head up from propaganda and try to look for other sources, and I'd say that most look for it on Telegram," he said.
