The fake Zelenskiy account reached 20,000 followers on Telegram before it was shut down, a remedial action that experts say is all too rare. READ MORE Asked about its stance on disinformation, Telegram spokesperson Remi Vaughn told AFP: "As noted by our CEO, the sheer volume of information being shared on channels makes it extremely difficult to verify, so it's important that users double-check what they read."

In early 2021, a database selling phone numbers pulled from Facebook was selling numbers for $20 per lookup.

Despite Telegram's origins, its approach to users' security has privacy advocates worried.
