118 гадоў таму ў Горадні нарадзіўся Меір Сухаўлянскі, больш вядомы як Meyer Lansky – адзін з самых вядомых гангстараў ЗША. Што цікава, пабудаваць фінансавую імперыю, у якой вельмі важныя былі казіно, дапамаглі матэматычныя здольнасці Ланскага. А яшчэ ёсць звесткі, што нягледзячы на неітальянскае паходжанне, Ланскі неафіцыйна і фактычна быў cappo di tutti capi (шэфам усіх шэфаў). Па сённяшні дзень постаць Ланскага вельмі папулярная ў «амерыканскай» папкультуры.

Either way, Durov says that he withdrew his resignation but that he was ousted from his company anyway. Subsequently, control of the company was reportedly handed to oligarchs Alisher Usmanov and Igor Sechin, both allegedly close associates of Russian leader Vladimir Putin. Now safely in France with his spouse and three of his children, Kliuchnikov scrolls through Telegram to learn about the devastation happening in his home country. On Telegram’s website, it says that Pavel Durov “supports Telegram financially and ideologically while Nikolai (Duvov)’s input is technological.” Currently, the Telegram team is based in Dubai, having moved around from Berlin, London and Singapore after departing Russia. Meanwhile, the company which owns Telegram is registered in the British Virgin Islands. 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." Telegram has become more interventionist over time, and has steadily increased its efforts to shut down these accounts. But this has also meant that the company has also engaged with lawmakers more generally, although it maintains that it doesn’t do so willingly. For instance, in September 2021, Telegram reportedly blocked a chat bot in support of (Putin critic) Alexei Navalny during Russia’s most recent parliamentary elections. Pavel Durov was quoted at the time saying that the company was obliged to follow a “legitimate” law of the land. He added that as Apple and Google both follow the law, to violate it would give both platforms a reason to boot the messenger from its stores.
