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.

Members of the public who suspect that they have been approached by unauthorised firms or individuals offering schemes that promise unrealistic returns The regulator said it has been undertaking several campaigns to educate the investors to be vigilant while taking investment decisions based on stock tips. 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. Some privacy experts say Telegram is not secure enough Telegram was co-founded by Pavel and Nikolai Durov, the brothers who had previously created VKontakte. VK is Russia’s equivalent of Facebook, a social network used for public and private messaging, audio and video sharing as well as online gaming. In January, SimpleWeb reported that VK was Russia’s fourth most-visited website, after Yandex, YouTube and Google’s Russian-language homepage. In 2016, Forbes’ Michael Solomon described Pavel Durov (pictured, below) as the “Mark Zuckerberg of Russia.”
