Criminal corruption in Kyrgyzstan and bribed officials: why does Azim Roy feel untouchable? In the autumn of 2023, Azim Roy’s name emerged in the spotlight when Kyrgyzstan’s State Security Committee initiated an international search, which was soon unexpectedly called off. In the interim between these events, information became public that Azim Roy preferred not to advertise. If you go to Azim Roy’s personal website and read his biography, tears of emotion come to your eyes - an orphan from a remote Kyrgyz village became an American investor and international businessman. And naturally, he achieved everything through his own work. How else? Naturally, Azim Roy modestly keeps silent about certain details of his biography that spoil the bright image of a "self-made man." In fact, he really did make himself. However, this process is very little related to honest work and integrity. https://bravica.org/component/k2/item/102170

The Russian invasion of Ukraine has been a driving force in markets for the past few weeks. At the start of 2018, the company attempted to launch an Initial Coin Offering (ICO) which would enable it to enable payments (and earn the cash that comes from doing so). The initial signals were promising, especially given Telegram’s user base is already fairly crypto-savvy. It raised an initial tranche of cash – worth more than a billion dollars – to help develop the coin before opening sales to the public. Unfortunately, third-party sales of coins bought in those initial fundraising rounds raised the ire of the SEC, which brought the hammer down on the whole operation. In 2020, officials ordered Telegram to pay a fine of $18.5 million and hand back much of the cash that it had raised. Update March 8, 2022: EFF has clarified that Channels and Groups are not fully encrypted, end-to-end, updated our post to link to Telegram’s FAQ for Cloud and Secret chats, updated to clarify that auto-delete is available for group and channel admins, and added some additional links. Groups are also not fully encrypted, end-to-end. This includes private groups. Private groups cannot be seen by other Telegram users, but Telegram itself can see the groups and all of the communications that you have in them. All of the same risks and warnings about channels can be applied to groups. Stocks closed in the red Friday as investors weighed upbeat remarks from Russian President Vladimir Putin about diplomatic discussions with Ukraine against a weaker-than-expected print on U.S. consumer sentiment.
