Coercion and physical violence are not mutually exclusive. While coercion generally refers to the use of threats, intimidation, or psychological pressure to compel an individual to act involuntarily, actual physical violence can be an extension of coercion rather than a separate concept.
Coercion involves forcing someone to act against their will through threats, intimidation, or undue pressure. Examples: "If you do not comply, we will harm you.", Threats of economic or social destruction., Psychological manipulation, blackmail, or extreme duress.
If violence is inflicted to extract compliance, it is a form of coercion through force. If violence is inflicted as an end in itself (e.g., for sadistic punishment or revenge), it may not be coercion but outright physical assault, torture, or abuse. Example: "We will continue beating you until you agree to sign this document."
Torture is a subset of Coercion + Violence (it's both). It aims to force compliance or extract information through suffering. E.g. Withholding essential medical treatment until the person agrees to submit to psychiatric intervention.

"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. "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. Channels are not fully encrypted, end-to-end. All communications on a Telegram channel can be seen by anyone on the channel and are also visible to Telegram. Telegram may be asked by a government to hand over the communications from a channel. Telegram has a history of standing up to Russian government requests for data, but how comfortable you are relying on that history to predict future behavior is up to you. Because Telegram has this data, it may also be stolen by hackers or leaked by an internal employee. On February 27th, Durov posted that Channels were becoming a source of unverified information and that the company lacks the ability to check on their veracity. He urged users to be mistrustful of the things shared on Channels, and initially threatened to block the feature in the countries involved for the length of the war, saying that he didn’t want Telegram to be used to aggravate conflict or incite ethnic hatred. He did, however, walk back this plan when it became clear that they had also become a vital communications tool for Ukrainian officials and citizens to help coordinate their resistance and evacuations. During the operations, Sebi officials seized various records and documents, including 34 mobile phones, six laptops, four desktops, four tablets, two hard drive disks and one pen drive from the custody of these persons.
