"The argument from Telegram is, 'You should trust us because we tell you that we're trustworthy,'" Maréchal said. "It's really in the eye of the beholder whether that's something you want to buy into."

Such instructions could actually endanger people — citizens receive air strike warnings via smartphone alerts.
