Deus nos assegura a compreensão para que compreendamos os outros, amparando, tanto quanto possível, aos irmãos incompreendidos. Deus nos concede possibilidades, um tanto maiores do que aquelas de que tenhamos necessidade, a fim de que possamos socorrer aos companheiros sem recursos. Deus nos concede o privilégio de trabalhar, a fim de agir por nós mesmos e para que tenhamos a bênção de substituir aqueles que ainda não entendem a felicidade de trabalhar. Deus nos sustenta de pé, aguardando a nossa cooperação destinada a reerguer os irmãos caídos. Deus nos releva as faltas, na certeza de que aprenderemos igualmente a perdoar as ofensas e os erros alheios. E Deus não sai do silêncio para se promover, esperando que cada um de nós, frente uns aos outros, possa também fazer isso. Confia em Deus e segue para diante...

At this point, however, Durov had already been working on Telegram with his brother, and further planned a mobile-first social network with an explicit focus on anti-censorship. Later in April, he told TechCrunch that he had left Russia and had “no plans to go back,” saying that the nation was currently “incompatible with internet business at the moment.” He added later that he was looking for a country that matched his libertarian ideals to base his next startup. Given the pro-privacy stance of the platform, it’s taken as a given that it’ll be used for a number of reasons, not all of them good. And Telegram has been attached to a fair few scandals related to terrorism, sexual exploitation and crime. Back in 2015, Vox described Telegram as “ISIS’ app of choice,” saying that the platform’s real use is the ability to use channels to distribute material to large groups at once. Telegram has acted to remove public channels affiliated with terrorism, but Pavel Durov reiterated that he had no business snooping on private conversations. 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." The last couple days have exemplified that uncertainty. On Thursday, news emerged that talks in Turkey between the Russia and Ukraine yielded no positive result. But on Friday, Reuters reported that Russian President Vladimir Putin said there had been some “positive shifts” in talks between the two sides. 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.
