   Pavel Durov can’t be held legally responsible for what happens in Telegram users’ E2EE direct chats, EFF’s @evacide told DW News. And arresting a CEO for content moderation practices could threaten millions of users’ free speech and privacy rights. https://youtu.be/NlHGfQyL3BM?feature=shared

     @eff only secret chats are E2EE, normal direct chats are client-server encryption only. But as far as I remember Telegram's servers have those chats encrypted and operators do not have the decryption keys available to them, so they can't just go looking at people's private chats.

     @eff @evacide this is weaponising free speech, the same dirty tactics done by people like Elon Musk.
