Вчера ИГ заявило о своей первой атаке на территории Демократической Республики Конго, в ходе которой погибли двое конголезских военных и один мирный житель. Однако под этим “международным брендом” скрывается здесь глубоко локальная группировка без внятной идеологии и целей, которая почти четверть века занимается незаконной добычей природных ресурсов и грабежом местного населения. Мой очередной большой материал - об этой организации.

Individual messages can be fully encrypted. But the user has to turn on that function. It's not automatic, as it is on Signal and WhatsApp. Artem Kliuchnikov and his family fled Ukraine just days before the Russian invasion. Some people used the platform to organize ahead of the storming of the U.S. Capitol in January 2021, and last month Senator Mark Warner sent a letter to Durov urging him to curb Russian information operations on Telegram. 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.
